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?

Forever Young

I want to wear my heart
on my Self
not just on my sleeve.
I did when I was young
imbued with hope
and lit by a holy spark.
Found feathers were magic wands
to clear away the shadows.
Storm clouds were just
languid shapes in water.
I open to that now,
a cross I will gladly bear.
