How to Read the Tarot

Begin by brewing a cup of tea,
a nervine, lemon balm or chamomile,
this is after all, your future.
A reading at the dark of the moon is best,
before the night creatures crawl
and bad humours fill the air.
Pick a circular deck, with a fairy-tale motif,
and no reversals.
Hold a question in your heart,
shuffle the cards and place them on the table.
Choose only two.
Like the ancient Israelites,
these are your seer stones, Urim and Thumimm,
black and white, yes or no.
Isn't that all you were asking?

After the Election

No blue wave yesterday,
today is quiet chaos.
I want to jump ship
slither from my human skin
rustle through the sawgrass
walk on my belly
become venomous.
Everglades pythons
suffer no anxiety.
So here I lie
wallowing in the mud
grasping for the sky.
