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?

Morning

I go outside at daybreak
to kiss the ground
with my feet,
to let the photons of the sun
scrub my rods and cones.
In my tiny garden
I create a runway
for birds, butterflies,
a 101 crawling beings.
I push my fingers
into the dirt.
I hunt for moss.
Already, the daytime veil is lifting.
I know not
what tears may come today.
I will not quaver.
I will dance.
