Tarot Talk

To the seeker who seeks,
to see the unseeable;

drink from the cup,
hold merit in the coin,
lean upon  the staff,
pierce with the sword. 
Let the trails of the major and
the minor  lead you out 
and then bring you home again.

Wisdom whispers to the,
Chosen and the listener.

'The Mystery' the mystics exhort,
'are the dichotomies of the
knowable, and unknowable  
that lay hidden in the shuffled deck.
And how the image, the picture,
the flip, the position, the relation,
awakens the fickle answers.'
