Houdini

Belief  
Is a reach  
For those who seek  

Disappointment  
Follows  
When magic is meek  
 
But magic  
Is all around  
I feel it  
Dream it  
The crowd oversees it  
If only I can see it  
 
I'll bust anyone  
Faking and calling claim  
With skepticism  
To see truth versus game  
 
I want the other side to be real  
Here  
A message I leave to reveal  
All I try in the after life to conceal  
I have yet found one of you to be real  
 
Magic  
I seek it with childish mirth  
But I've yet to see it  
My death is rebirth.

Author's Note
I feel as he died and told his wife to look for him in the afterlife that he sought to discredit in the hopes that one day he could not. He died believing in magic, always seeking it in his life. Real magic. I feel his real fans understand this. He spent a lot of time looking for magic, especially anything that proved or disprove the afterlife.
