Soothsayer

sight... 
a prophet's mark unsheathed
radiant, quell the shadow's scream
her lips were never meant for me
in auguries 
... blood uncharted

Soothsayer indicates she should pull a card.
It is the Eight of Swords
Not a good one
Then she pulls the Tower
Worst card of all

And words from her lips flow with honey
And life is more fun

Find Brain First

To play with someone's mind were cursed
Because we would have to find it first.

This is what I am beginning to believe

Soothsayer

I believed at the time of my youth, that clairvoyants predicted the truth. A soothsayer foretold that my life would be gold. He was wrong with his asinine sooth!

Predictions

A soothsayer vigorously announced impending doom,
    To the gathered townsfolk causing such gloom,
            But when a lightning bolt struck 
              The predictor was out of luck,
      Laughing, they swept him away with a broom.

Premium Member Ruth the Soothsayer

Giant’s wife was angry Ruth
Thinks she is a super sleuth
Manners are usually uncouth
Some say she comes from Duluth

Ruth has a magic wisdom tooth
And the gift of a saysooth
When she speaks, it is the truth
Uh-oh, she’s sitting in the adjoining booth

Premium Member If You Sense Danger Leave

ominous macabre omen
soothsayer did not raise the alarm
saw the murder before it happened
“be aware,” she said to the wife.
“if you sense danger, leave”.
The wife gave her a nervous laugh.
She felt danger every day.
Danger gave her a mean look before taking her arm.

Premium Member Soothsayer Predicts a Death

The soothsayer slowly moved her hand over the crystal ball.
I predict a death, she told the man.
I am sorry, but it might be your death.
This surprised his wife, and horrified his daughter.
They were astounded and shocked by this news.
Which is a bit odd
Since he is 91.

Premium Member The Witch Was Magnificent

The witch was magnificent.
A soothsayer, a prophet, a sorcerer.
We watched her from afar.
She transmogrified into a pumpkin.
We watched in amazement.
Her hat was the only clue as to her location.
Shall we touch it? My cousin asked.
He did and promptly disappeared.
I heard a loud cackle.

tight as a mouthful

the smithy was empty
and the tree near it had fallen
and no one had expected it
the sunken sun had made a stand
with desperate gaiety
swept through sleep
to break the night

The Autumn children
like caged birds
counted the crocus stalks
and for footfalls of a misbegotten
soothsayer

Premium Member Not So Divine

Of soothsayer and fortuneteller beware,
False oracles are everywhere.
Predictions of True God’s innermost plan
Comes from the forked tongue of man. 

Keep precious Bible close at hand,
Read often so to understand 
God reveals all in His own time.
Prepare thee now for Life Sublime.

Premium Member Wise Soothsayer Owl

Soothsayer owl was wiser than most
Kept quiet about it, was not one to boast
I heard from others how sage he was
He dressed with crystals, and a bit of fuzz

Kind of like a hippie in his fancy attire
Have to admit, I did kind of admire
The way he had with people and me
He stayed a fortnight, as wise as he could be

Distant View

sunrise for sale

a pinpoint of light

find your place in the stars

elliptical orbit

afar

new definitions

of the solar system

created

found

with a timeless search

astronomers and soothsayer

cry out

this distant body

given a letter

instead of a name

the ultimate seclusion

for an infinite price

My Woman's Venom

She is the virus that makes my blood boils
a shadow that races my path every were i go
the sweet burning desire that stirs my emotions
a venom that controls my veins.
 
she never bits my conscience
a spirit that keeps my soul alive
she is my pleasure,
the ring that beautifies my hands
a soothsayer who direct my future
the venom of my love.
