Harold’s mother was reliant on him for everything, compromised by a stroke, but still able to communicate. He was a captive of circumstance, fealty. He would die a slave, he thought, his invalid mother all he’d know of love, his duty, his only accomplishment, his pleasure taken in what he knew to be vain fantasies. Harold was a dreamer in the body of a realist. Just like a magician, Harold often thought, my sleeves full of doves, my hands precise, deceptive, my costume romantic, white tie and tails, a dozen pockets loaded with mute animals, scarves, playing cards, invisible thread, the hidden wonders of a man with no illusions.What we imagine looks something like a somewhat antiquated operating theater, the onlookers of which are a chorus of young people. Harold, our protagonist is on the table, his heart operation in progress. The operating theater becomes the locus of Harold’s out of body excursion, the chorus an extension of his mind, becoming alternately a kind of Charon (the ferryman of the dead from classical mythology) a train conductor, or Harold’s invalid mother, a church choir, or whatever abstraction serves him best as he makes his journey. And it is a kind of journey from the constraints of his life to the open fields of death or heaven, if you will. Harold’s story is somewhat tragic: from a young age, say twelve, he has had to take care of his invalid mother. He has taken care of her his entire life, any dreams he had for his future remaining dreams. So we are meditating here on both a lost childhood and the eclipse of one’s dreams. Harold wanted to be a magician. He became, however, a repairman of watches and clocks. In this liminal space between life and death, as Harold hovers, he takes a train ride to Coney Island, or rather an imagined Coney Island, a combination of the elements of his fascination with magicians, their artful deceptions: appearances and disappearances. We are at the beginning of our collaborative journey now. What you are seeing tonight is the suggestion of the path, a partial sketch.

18 Magician: One thinks, Mother will improve and I’ll be on a plane. Away in an instant, my life forgotten in a moment. On a plane to Venice or Paree, one thinks of this in the middle of one’s life, as one takes ones place in line, as one buys ones groceries, as one feeds one’s mother, even as one talks to her of one’s day, the details of one’s day, the boring details of a day spent calling to these strangers, asking them to come closer, asking them to be amazed: My magician. My magician isn’t just sleight of hand, no. You’ll be astonished. This is not just sleight of hand, but art, the highest art.

21 One doesn’t think of one’s childhood when one is living it, no matter how constrained one’s circumstances. If one is confined to one’s apartment, feeding one’s mother, one reads, one takes oneself off to a quiet corner while mother watches her favorite programs, one reads Treasure Island, and Huckleberry Finn, and The Three Musketeers, and one reads about Houdini, one imagines oneself upside down, suspended 80, 100, 200 ft. above the pavement, freeing oneself from the straight jacket while the astonished crowd marvels, or one is under the ice with less than a minute to pick the locks, unchain oneself and swim to the surface, find the hole again and emerge to the cries of the assembled throng, their mittens muffling the applause, the vapor rising as they gasp, a cloud of disbelief, awe, and wonder rising above their delighted eyes. My father knew him, Houdini, shook his head once at Coney Island, right after the escape from the water tank, the glass tank, Houdini chained upside down. My father worked that show as a boy. He held the towel for Houdini, and Houdini thanked him, shook his hand, my father. He told me that day we went to Coney Island, showed me the spot where Houdini did his trick, showed me where he had stood with the towel ready, “son”, he said, “stand here. Now you’re exactly where Houdini stood when he jumped down from the top of the tank, when I would hand him the towel, and he would thank me and shake my hand. You’re Houdini right now, son. How’s it feel?” And I said it felt great, and he picked me up and put me on his shoulders and we ran, careening down the midway, dodging the pedestrians.One remembers one’s father often, one reminds one’s mother when she loses track, one tells the stories one has. How he walked, how he sang, what he said of his life, how he smoked, the way he held the cigarette, how he looked the day before he died, one recalls this to one’s mother.But one saves some things for oneself. One keeps some things as treasures, not to be shared.That day at Coney Island, when one is placed by one’s father on a sacred spot and told something magical, when one is hoisted on one’s father’s shoulders, running down the midway.Then the train ride home, when a tired boy falls asleep on his father’s lap and dreams of miraculous escapes, while one’s father hums a tune, sings softly as his son sleeps, on the train after a day at Coney Island, just the two of them, and the ghost of Houdini. And the wheels of the train go round and round, and one is sleeping on the lap of one’s father, and one’s father is singing softly

Priest: How long has it been since your last confession my son?Harold: Forgive me father, for I have sinned. It’s been too long since my last confessionOne wishes to be good. One wants to live according to the scriptures. But one’s imagination is beyond reason, beyond regulation. One wishes to fix one’s longing like one fixes a crazy watch, one wishes to fix one’s heart.One is tied to one’s mother, and there is no escaping that, Houdini couldn’t do it. One’s mother is not as simple as a locked chain or a straightjacket. One is bound to one’s mother as a boy, as a young man, in one’s middle age and on and on, because she is disabled but still strong, and one loves her, one aches for her, one hates, one wants her to die, one wants her to live, one loves her, one prays for some miracle, and still, day after day one goes to work, one sits at one’s workbench with those broken watches and clocks, the tiny wheels and springs, and one dreams of larger wheels, larger springs, somewhere where time is large, one’s heart is large, one is on the shoulders of one’s father, running down the midway, and one doesn’t want to escape. But here one is, living as one must, caring for one’s mother as one must, taking her to church as one must, feeding her as one must, helping her dress every morning as one must, going to work as one must, ruining one’s eyes, peering into the tiny works of the clock, its delicate little wheels, its absurdly small heart of springs and cogs. And they come to me broken, and I bring them back to life. They hum in my hands, the hands of a magician or a surgeon, and I dream as I must. And in my dream I am a child in a garden of large wheels and springs, I am the heart of the clock, I am the master of time, and so the world is eternal, for everything I touch springs to life in my hands. everything I touch sings in my hands, my young hands.Forgive father for I cannot stop dreaming of these things
