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?

As the day unfolds....

as the day I unfolds
I learn
that Kamala likes to cook
democracy is sweet
and I will bake an election cake
tradition says it is dense, yeasty, boozy
but I am going for easy
Duncan Hines spice
with extra spice for diversity
extra raisins for pleasure
as the day unwinds
I place candles on the cake
lighting a way for victory
and to keep democracy sweet
