Diary of a Silent Magician

Applause, Cheers, and Whistles. “We have come to the highlight of the show!” Tadah! Whoosh! Lights reveal the Black Box. Applause and cheers. “Who would like to get sawed in half tonight?” More salvoes and hearty laughter. “I need a volunteer. Uhmm…let’s see, ah yes, you there. The lady in purple from the sixth row, please come to the stage! Awww come on, ha, this isn’t a trick!” Laughter envelops the stage. “Ha, just a little magician humor there! Come on up!” Continued applause, cheers, and whistles.

As she slowly walked to the center of the stage, her life flashed before her drowning eyes. Many thoughts rent space in her mind. Maybe he’s a mind reader too, she thought. Maybe he can see the neon sign painted in her mind that has been screaming...silently.

A mind that screams “I can’t take it anymore”

A mind that explored suicide
A mind that begs for peace
A mind that aims to cut piece by piece to everyone’s satisfaction

A mind that is tired

Tired of sandcastle foe
Tired of fairytale lies
Tired of losing Emerald City diamonds
Tired of dreaming in mime
Tired of running through a marionette mausoleum
Tired of harlequin masquerade mazes
Tired of entertaining the alchemy of guile
Tired of living the algorithm
Tired of electric eyes, phosphorescent, tears aglow
Tired of being a Silent Magician

People were clapping for her to go on stage, get sawed in half, and then get put back together again. That would be the perfect ending to the perfect Magic Show, wouldn’t it? Then when it’s all over, the Magician says, “Thanks for coming, and glad you all enjoyed the show!” Yeah, abracafuckindabra…is how she felt, when she stood on stage, and it felt no different in her everyday life. No more tricks.

Back to the show…..

Applause, cheers, and whistles. “Yes, thank you for volunteering! What is your name? Bloody Mary? Wow, well that fits perfectly!” More salvoes, cheers, and whistles. Please lay down in the box and relax!” The Magician spins the Black Box very slowly to show the audience all sides of the box. She hums a Beethoven Sonata. He positions the box just so, pulls out a large, shiny, electric double-toothed saw, turns it on, and…

Dear Ms Mango,

First, thank you so much for this morning and helping me. Second, thank you so much for reading and commenting. I am not sure where I want to go with this really. Believe it or not, I don't want to turn this into horror for some reason, but I may because that's what I write. I don't know Mango, what do you suggest?

PD

Dear Ms. Kim:

Well, I am back here on stage reading your awesome stories. I like it so much!! I was even expecting to read the ending, but you left us with suspense and more expectation...Would you like to turn your story into a horror one, or perhaps with a happy ending?? That is your choice, as a writer. I plan to continue reading your awesome stories. IŽll be back!! Thank you for sharing your outstanding talents with us, dear Ms. Kim!! Kind Regards, Starry.

Nice story.. let me guess the ending..

The girl got sawed into half, because of her nervousness, the magician accidentally lost control and she died...

altenate ending...1

The magic suceed, she got sawed into half but got fixed back again...

alternate ending... 2

The magic suceed, but the magician was not perfect in this trick, so she got her body stuck to her legs, and her hips on the ground.. OMG!!

alternate ending... 3

just when the electric saw touch the girl, it stopped suddenly.. <start new story>...

hahaz, did you get the beethoven sonata idea from my post earlier, A Poem
