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?

Thankful

I am no longer a woman
of the 24-hour news cycle
but becoming
a being of the long sacred story.
In our shattered world,
in a body deranged
by genocidal technostates
there are shifts and waves
safe caves.
It is there in your bones and skin,
a place where your ancestors live.
Come,
be a wide-eyed wanderer.
