O Mage, just how does magic work? Alignment, Components, Words, and Signs…     A wand or rod is helpful, too The stars and moon mark time for you. Breath whispers words so softly now, Eyes light the night with tongues of fire The circle is created here So walk the blade edged wire, desire Each step is painful ecstasy I follow though I fear we’ll fall Perhaps the greatest spell will be To somehow just outlive it all.
