Tragic Tarot Truths

The gypsy took the silver
like ancient Arabs who read
arrows and
quiver or
Chinese grandma’s con-
jured fates from
leaves of tea

She leaves me

Roman flamen once read liver
The east used turtle shells
Dreams…
don’t like those, they
make me shiver

Her kiss fades

Indic brahmin map orbs,
set auspicious dates
Astro-chart absorbs

the impact

The cards were
predictable
