and now, upon a cloth of blue an altar is array... I took the card of mage, and dealt the card of fool away-- My own sarcasm interfered. I took high priestess for myself for that is what the fools call me-- I took the lovers--placed beneath and prayed someday they be released; inspite of all my fears. The hermit always was my guide shining lantern on the hill... I dreamed of lighthouse, once, but now...I see that certainly-- that's me. reluctant beacon, beckoning.... My ginger blossomed-- amazed am I-- it bloomed she boasted through monsoon... Lilies red I cut for dead because I think that they'll bloom too. Salt within a clay dish kept. residual of tears we've wept. candles spill vanilla squall that show the shadow of me--tall-- burn these pieces I don't need.. corn is but a bull's concede... a pestle in a mortar--pressed-- maize--amazed--I cannot rest. To think that I was granted such... miracle of god/dess touch-- I open heart and open arms and know that all illusions be... I weave the clover chanting charm and pray there is a prayer ...for me.
