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?

Brave New World--apologies to Aldous Huxley

We will be brave
embrace our pain
cry and shine
stray from the crafty line
that only humans matter.
We will escape the trap
of the anthropocene
settle in the cracks
of slime molds, fungi, leopards.
We will watch our worries
sparkling anxieties
drain away.
We will trim AI to a nubbin.
