Card manipulation
Card manipulation is the branch of magical illusion that deals with creating effects using sleight of hand techniques involving playing cards. Card manipulation is often used in magical performances, especially in close-up, parlor, and street magic. Some of the most recognized names in this field include Dai Vernon,Tony Slydini,Ed Marlo, S.W. Erdnase, Richard Turner and Ricky Jay. Before becoming world famous for his escapes, Houdini billed himself as "The King of Cards".
History
Playing cards became popular with magicians in the last century or so as they were props which were inexpensive, versatile, and easily available. Although magicians have created and presented myriad of illusions with cards (sometimes referred to as trıcks), most of these illusions are generally considered to be built upon perhaps one hundred or so basic principles and techniques. Presentation and context (including patter, the conjurer's misleading account of what he is doing) account for many of the variations.

Card Tricks
by: Seaweedthrow the printing that's not fit
these jerks like us are cause of it
try and document the dullest corners of a life
do you feel content with better days and better moments
should i grasp a hold
rips out the sonnet where he dies
repeat nod it off
my peers become components
and in out place
let's create a void
under the third card
you'll find my gold
it's such a bum
the slow see nothing
see up as face less waste offs
tip the tourist hard
gave him the story worth the dime
strtch out in feeble days
better days and better moments
should i identify
the lack of a knowledge of a world
easy life resides
beneath the shell and turn the keys
aaaaaaaaay could wait so long
for better days and better moments
aaaaaaaaay
