Center of the Tarot

shift of power
those who have it
to those who dont
the tables turn
and at the center
we hold these six coins
among reflections of life lessons
truths and blessings
shuffle my deck clean
the marble in my brain is rolling around
sabatoge the war efforts before the sentence
hiding in the shadows
hiding in the shadows
incomplete
never mind
its nothing
bones on flesh
birthday songs
whats my name
hear them sing it
the transformation
propoganda
around the world
and the blood on our hands
stalking chaos
picking my teeth
caviar and fame
what i have you dont
scramble the message before its too late
call for help
reaching out
better late than never
the child called it
mastermind the double entente
now shake my hand and walk the other way
plague for the royalty
a game to play
a game for no fools
waiting for that day
was the victom
was the martyr
but enough is enough
what did god give the queen to save the king
stamps and coins
making our own money
never mind anything
spoon in my coffee
no sugar today
flesh on the bones
colorblind
and in a funk
what did i forget from the last perfect life
something only stars could say

happy birthday
