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?

taking up space on the mothership


I love my face in the morning
no teeth, bed head, the day dawning.
Just a baby-faced naked clown,
I refuse to put myself down.
Crow's feet, double chin, smile and frown lines I embrace.
You just see an old, old woman, I love my face.


I love my body at nighttime,
uncoiled tension, full recline.
What dreams may come I do not know.
Ghosts, phantasms, nightmares come , go..
I am an ecotone, a swamp witch, swamp molly.
Flaccid arms, flabby belly, I love my body.
