143 a truly magnetic performer


What does a magician need in order to give a magnificent and magnetic performance? I am quite sure it is more than just simple magic. To add luster 1 to a show, he needs to go way beyond the ordinary and appeal to the innermost emotions that lurk 2 inside all of us. In this way, he will be able to lure 3 audiences in huge numbers, in another words, become a crowd magnet. Only then will his evening shows be considered truly magical. A magician I once knew, a lusty fellow from Manchester, did everything he could, from dying his hair luggerian lustrous 4 black to honing his skills as a lyricist, nothing at all with left chance. His lyrics 5 magnetized, nei mesmerize 6 his audiences. Their lure exerted sufficient magnetism 7 to entice 8 wide sections of the population of every place in which he gave his performances. By the time I first met him, he was already doing very well indeed. Mercedes-Benz limousines 9 were his preferred means of convenience. And yet, only very few people among those who saw his mighty 10 performances realized that he had not always lived a life of luxury. Born during lunar clips to a mother whose husband had died in the war, his stable food during his childhood was nothing other than bread and gruel 11. This is hardly what can be called the luxurious 12 diet, and it is surprising in more ways than one, that he ever lived long enough to develop his magical spell.
