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?

White Pumpkins

A dumb supper
for Samhain, my birthday.
Black tablecloths, white pumpkins
a river of sorrows
in my kitchen.
I invite my friends
that passed this year.
In the silence
I may hear then whisper,
"We are not gone,
just away."
"It is not cruel to say,
we will meet again,
as dust on white pumpkins."
