The magic show

Life a magic show, we appear out of nothing
For the eye too quick 
Diversions from what is coming
Knowing but not wanting to believe it\'s a trick
Reality a slight of hand
Hidden, it lies out of sight
A trap door and a mirror we don\'t understand
An invisible thread we don\'t see in a card\'s flight
Smoke and mirrors takes away our fears 
Clouds our eyes to reveal a surprise
In a box cut in half
In a disguise, illusion parted lies
In clap and laugh lies our epitaph
