Humans Not Tools
A Magician we see
Standing so tall
Using his magic
To hypnotize all
Sitting beside him
A High Priestess of power
Pretty as a picture
Soft as a flower
Her lady, her for
The Empress of worlds
Lavish surroundings
Exquisitely pearl
The Empresses man
So high and respected
Emperor of worlds
Or so as elected
An old man of knowledge
The Hierophant so wise
Ask what you will
He'll tell you lies
Two people in love
The Lovers embrace
A candle lit evening
Lust just a trace
The evening then ends
The Lovers elope
In the Chariot of emotions
Only each other devote
Justice comes forth
Our decider of fate
Who'll die with honour
Who'll die with hate
The Hermit an example
From loneliness so deep
A fear that his reality
Will make him take that leap
Then some of us are lucky
The Wheel of Fortune spins free
They live a life of happiness
In perminate luxury
Then some people although
Are born with natural Strength
They fight for their happiness
Who ever they're against
Other people will fall
They become a Hanged Man
Their soul is slowly dieing
Forever eternally damned
Death some do call this
It's why we have been born
For each and every person
Eventually will mourn
Then Temperance calls an order
For the peace must remain
Life she states is serious
Not some childish little game
The Devil begins to laugh
You silly silly fool
All lives that are living
Are my personal playing tools
The Tower is my saviour
My evil evil abode
Unwanted souls dwell there
So stay out of my road
Yet far up above
A Star is shining bright
Filling up that darkness
With a spiritual white light
The Moon is always watching
Helping us to see
Preventing us from falling
A hero he must be
Then the Sun begins to shine
In every person's heart
The good bad or evil
Their never far apart
Judgement then prevails
In all of our lives
As a woman has a husband
Or man has a wife
This is how people
See the World today
So full of hard decisions
Never time to play
So just maybe we all are
Seen as simple Fools
Hopefully you realise
We're humans not tools
This poem is how I see the major cards of the tarot
And the very 1st poem I wrote
