seven of cups
“I have no future plans,
”I begin calmly.
I am arms outstretched
walking nowhere but withardency
so I am labeled:
whimsical and manic,
a troubled woman not to marry
and like a wound up fairy,
the character that keeps the music box spinning.
until it’s boring:
the repetition,
the posing,
the pink smile
and matching slippers
leaping from her gold coiled post
growing nerves and ankles that bend flat
to walk tor un.
to crawl.
people like me becausI have no plans,
am honest about it,
resplendent teeth when writing sonnets to the men
and a sense of fury when reflecting on affairs.
I’m big,
and have wings that carry weapons.
I hear in a distance someone repeat it
you use intimidation as a tactic
to seize opportunity
well,
I am blessed with delusive lips and I also use black magic.
“seven of cups”
