In The Cards
When they tell you mudslides are coming, evacuate now. Evacuate! Why stand there thinking. You lookup and the mountain is moving toward you. Get in the car, strike out walking, along dry roads until you can look up and the mountain is not moving. Waiting to be rescued from a rooftop and pulled up into a helocopter is no tv drama. You trade one fear for another fear and then move to a city surrounded by concrete.Dodging bullets or fleeing flood, keeping an unrelenting pace versus so much traffic there is no room for walking, so much exhaust there is no place for breathing. Dream of your mountain hikes in air so fresh it makes you think this is how God walked around when the earth was just finished. World-wide a cool trillion dollars in damages, displaced people, and ruined landscape. To flee and then return to where your house used to be has got to be mind on fire painful. The irony was so much rain after so much fire, the elements fire and air go to war with fire and earth. The ancients had a point. Living beneath a volcano has risks. The Tarot reading: Fear death by fire and drowning made believers of us all.
