I'M NO MYSTIC

 

I’m no mystic

Or

It must be the gypsy in me

 

 

I am no mystic

Soothsayer

Seer

I chant no unholy

Litany

No crystal ball is mine

No Tarot cards

To tell

The reality in front of me

 

Yet

There are times

My mind seeks to sleep in fantasy

And

Hide from the devil at my heels

And yes

My senses reel

Occasionally

At what suddenly

I know or feel

 

They say

It just may be

Those golden earrings grandpa wore

Two hundred years down

And more
