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?

Uniola Paniculata

When I wake in the morning
I am never not broken.
Some fear, anxiety, small pain
always breaks through.
But I choose how to put myself back together,
like the sea oats I pass
at each beach entrance,
survivors of Ian and Idalia.
I ride my sadness and confusion
down to the water.
I dissolve my edges
becoming softer and softer
knowing that the sea oats
deep, dense roots
anchor the sand, their entire habitat.
As I roll, swell, and surge
I pray that my roots too, will hold.
