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?

Rot

I am not the walrus
but I am the pumpkin
left to rot in the ground.
Perhaps the maggots will come
to devour and eat me
creating good compost.
Perhaps my seeds will sprout
and become volunteers
to make magickal pies.
Finally, this seeker
will resonate with earth
and become a relic.
