Sagas Among the Arcana: More Haikus

suparnah Uncategorized

The five of swords

 

At betrayals foot;

it revels in violence.

Vengeance, dethrone it.

 

 

Nine of cups

 

Finally, triumph

Happy days upon your gaze

Only at deceit’s cost

 

 

Four of cups

 

Gold blinds— still so fine,

Glittering vessels— empty,

Dangerous Splendor
