Poof! - You’re Gone
Instructions for disappearing challenge
No homosexual slur, not on your life,
I simply want to put a poof into your life.
One minute you are here,
The next time you are gone,
A simple set of instructions,
To make you disappear.
I know it’s arse about.
But for me, as a magician,
It’s really very clear,
One minute, they see you,
And the next, you disappear.
Just come up here beside me,
Prance around all you like,
But when called to attention,
You come and stand by my side.
I’ll say something fancy,
And when I drop the curtain down,
Poof! - you simply run and hide.
Are you clear on the instructions?
To make you disappear,
Do we need to go over it?
Well, maybe just one more time,
But even for a rabbit,
They should be crystal clear.

Very good, Calvin!!💗💕 Never heard poof before for gay males. I'm sure I've missed lots of slang!😉
Very cute… complicated magic trickery!🤣
Oh this poetic style suits you very well Calvin. I like that this was from the perspective of the magician. He seems playful and posh. Very much in his villain era, and I like that a lot. It also sounds like a very real conversation that was had, between the two. Very nice, a piece, well done! ♥️🤗
Absolutely- I am clear on your instructions Calvin and now to make one of my neighbors disappear. Great humor/
Haha, I can try this trick too, right? I wanna poof some people outta my life.... Do I have the permission to use your trick, Sir? 😂😂
This has such a cheeky, theatrical flair. I love it!
Yayyyy I've disappeared! Your instructions were very clear hehehe. Loved your poem!
