Poem about illusions.

An illusion.
A trick of the mind.
A test of your conviction.
Shame we’re so easily fooled.
How did he do it?
I didn’t see a thing.
How is that possible?
I’d love to know.
Illusions are powerful.
They have literally.
Won key historical battles.
When a mind so fallible.
Can’t perceive the trick
The illusionist wins.
