Cinquains

Three Cards The Fool Drew

THE MOON

Mansion

His faithful bones

Cracks in the foundation

Cold relentless, damp unwanted

Haunted

~

THE HERMIT

Tortoise

Dark deep revealed

Retreat into hard shells

Voyeur, his consumption sated

Undone

~

THE LOVERS (Reversed)

Bright fire

Kindred heat dance

Behind obsidian

Breath stolen, suffocation, gasp

Smolder

~

THE FOOL

Soldier

Battles fought, lost

She becomes the empress

Armor dropped, hair loose, eyes open

Laid bare
