The Delicate Art of Divining By Ashleen O'Gaea

The Delicate Art of Divining By Ashleen O'Gaea

Now, the delicate art of divining

is a question of minding the clues

while events of the worlds are combining

in ways that we do and don't choose.

What is of little importance?

What carries significant weight?

Every strand lengthens or shortens

as we try to sort folly from fate.

Reading the cards or the tea leaves,

tracing out lines on a hand,

interpreting patterns a life weaves –

will the future be simple, or grand?

Of course we must always remember

that the future is still ours to build.

Forget, and you don’t just offend Her,

but your power remains unfulfilled.

So if you are thinking of peeking,

don’t stress if predictions are fey,

for the future is constantly leaking

from tomorrow right into today!

And the delicate art of divining

is not about linear time.

In your mirror your future is shining,

and the truth is, we all are divine.
