The Perfect Shuffle

The blind slide of Freudian slips half and half cut the stack face up so you can see the words you have written on the edges of my three worded stanzas an intricate complex this is One by one right then left right then left right then left A scrambled message I know the answer to a word on the left side one word on the top one word on the right side the mensa geniuses might find me here stalking shadows and handing out ultimatums but the game of the blind leading the blind just got better right left right left right left until you run out of cards that was One now do it seven times for this is the scientific perfect shuffle write down the message of the threes and lets see how long it takes them to figure out the message for the psychics for the geniuses for the politicians for the gifted One by One right handed card on bottom blind leading the blind a victom of an intricate complex something worth figuring to be a secret of art as every day metaphors of art inspire us poets One day we will rise like ashes from the flame we will be on talk shows and interviewed about our silly games of how we teach and humble and set up the modern day an intricate complex to protect the world and to wonder about satanic prevention am I good or evil? only one way to find out go forth and get your deck write the three words per card beings dream are the jokers and when you write your revelation of how it turned out for you ponder the blind slide point them in my direction and they can write their chapter of if they followed me or the martyr of you! It's really the perfect shuffle the keys are way out of reach don't know how many centuries it will take to uncover the message but i think its gonna be neat blind leading the blind from one way to the next to mix them up and reveal and twist the same message and I the keeper of the puzzle will claim my fame in all honesty as I have called out to geniuses to come help me escape the satellites i'm on and fake my death
