Morning Tarot: A Haiku

The horned one appears in fire;

fanning the flames of the past–

and the all consuming worship of self;

at the cost of the beloved many.

Two blades arise

and as they point

to the earth,

they signal a caution of the fall

and to be wary of repeating the past

and the lust for indulgence.

At the last, Judgement appears

and, facing the heavens,

brings the verdict

that joy and rebirth stand ready

for the one who will listen…

and learn to rise above themselves.
