“I think of how the mystics read
by the light of their own bodies.
What a world of darkness that must have been

that turn into heaps of ash on the altar,
how everything in the end is made
equal by the wind.

of the next card

over for us—
Forgive me
for not knowing
how we were
every card in the deck.”
