underwear sitting
naked skin taut and all
head weary in shivers
i don’t want the long time
i don’t want the rub
sitting in wait
for her ever
i give myself to mud
taiga tempts
everywhere i turn
i see raven watching
roadsides, treetop
even at the store
overlooking children
of the first nations
’listen,’ they say
’look,’ they add
’there is a story
here needing telling’
the taiga tempts
blackened feathers fall
as they slip awayTo like/comment:

The Cairns card from the “Oracle of the Morrigan” card deck here, the heroes
stand guard the pale
while at fives
while at nines
and under the sevens
unmoved by illusion
waiting in stillness
for those
who might find
their way homeDisclosure: My use of those tools most often associated with divination are largely as randomized writing prompts, often with the intent of personal alchemy. They are not intended to be representative of traditional divinatory practice. My personal interpretations (and methods) will likely not agree with those found in popular culture.
