k a number. Any number,
Pick a number from one to ten.
Pick a colour, close your eyes.
Pick a card, choose a colour.
Purple. The colour of Kings and Queens.
Kiss me. Taste love on my
Lips as I draw in your breath.
Pick a door, any door, for all
paths lead me to you. Pick a lock,
any lock, it matters not, love is
every card trick rolled in purple
Silk and scattered across the keys
Aof time. Pick a card, any colour,
Achoose a lock…find the right door.
The mystery of magic, find the right
door.
