Smokers

by @andrew-tang

The most common magic trick I've ever seen is making a 100mm stick disappear. It is the oldest trick in the book. Everyone knows how it’s done but everyone is always never tired of being the audience to it. Maybe it’s because the audience is always invited to take part in the act. The trick is always done by a stressed magician, The trick mocked by kids trying to imitate the 100mm disappearing stick trick. They hide under the pretence of being stressed. They disgrace the world class performers that had practiced the routine so much throughout their lives. Never quitting And Always over rehearsing. The performers would always keep practicing until it becomes its second nature like breathing. Until it becomes like a habit, Until they become too passionate to the routine on perfecting the make-believe act. That they are too obsessed to  realized they had become addicted to it. They had become too reliant over it and that they can't live without it. Even on their last breath they would attempt to show its final performance and draw its strength from it. The most common magic trick I've ever seen involves a 100mm stick disappearing. The trick is like every other disappearing magic act. First the object is lit on fire with a light, Second the smoker kisses the object and takes a deep inhale praying the performance would go well. Third you get distracted by the smokes given off in the exhale And ...ta da. While the Smoke rises It is estimated 14 minutes of the magician's life disappearing. However the audience is too focused on the main act of the 100mm stick disappearing to notice.
