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?

Imagine

There is a portal
to a world that exists
only in my imagination.
There is no Hamas, no Hezballah,
no Mosad, no armies anywhere.
All borders are open.
People flow freely to all lands.
We all live in the mucky middle.
No language has a word for hostage,
only one for prisoners of joy.
There is no capitalism, patriarchy,
sexism, ableism.
We love who we love without fear
of veiled threats.
No books are banned.
All grief is shared,
wrapped in the arms of our neighbors.
I carry gumdrops and stardust
in my pockets.
I imagine the world will live as one.
