Dedication — A Drop of Good

Magick is unique to each individual who invokes it.

It’s my hope that each person here today at some point felt the magick inscribed in my tome, but if that’s not the case for you, don’t let that be cause for disbelief...

Magick comes in countless forms; it offers a perfect design for each individual experience. And even if it’s often sensationalized, its depictions outright fictitious—that doesn’t negate the truth behind them. There is a power in human will, and that is magick.

So, as we reach my final spell, I hope only that you might lend me your will... and see my words become truth:

A single goal, through all my penning,

is that this work, bears this one meaning:

A drop of good, at first alone,

but then you add a drop your own.

And as combine those drops of good,

our drops become a tide, a flood.

Primeval force, all-overwhelming,

our waters wash out, healing, helping!

And then unveiled, both new and strange,

as through our will, our world is changed.

When words cause change, through naught but will,

then that, for me, makes Magick real.

But, as we’ve reached my work’s conclusion,

I now must end this fair illusion...

And yet...

If ever Magick you would seek,

or if some spellwork you would do,

Just turn these pages, read these words,

and let this book sing out through you.
