Tarot Reading

Cards out on the table, displayed like a fan

Beckon you to draw one and lay them in your palm

Intricate symbols and words you don’t understand,

Let me explain, lest you fret over your qualms.

Hushed tones, casted eyes, you lend me your trust

Trail behind my words, I promise to lead

You to visions of love and luck and just

As I spew illusions woven from greed.

But what of it? I caused your eyes to glimmer

High Priestess is drawn, but you are The Fool

Fire burns on my tongue, its flame never dimmer

I seek company and my cards are my tools.
