The Tent of Madam ZeldaA Chapter by My Fair Lady"Divination Calling..."
Summer night Carnival Lights Music calling my name Caramel Apple Cotton Candy Carnies yelling “play this game”
Sticky Sweetness Children laughing Greasy ride attendant stares House of Mirrors Blow up slide Lovers walking in pairs
Hear my name In the Wind Shake it off as if not to hear Nagging, pulling Divination calls an Invitation to the tent of Madam Zelda- Seer
Walk by twice Suspicious wondering mind Decide to take a quick peek Lift the tent flap Look inside No one there to speak
Curiosity spiked Step inside No one to see me Pick up the ball Looks like plain glass A hoax this seer must be
Incensed air Fills my head Turn as if to go Heavy accent Hear my name Skeptical turn so slow
“Please sit down” My name again Like a puppet I obey Take my seat Purple and Plush Quickly Look Away
Smoke and Mirrors It’s all a joke I am thinking in my head It’s just for fun A carnival ride Then This is what she said:
“Give to me your hands” I did “You working much too hard” Anyone could see that fact By the calluses and burns “Your soul is weary” “You have no money” “You need a new car” “You love your children” “You do not believe in me”
I pulled my hands away she already said too much Attempted to mentally block her
“You don’t believe In Madam Zelda You think I am a fool” “Ask me any question You like I will tell the truth”
Tarot hands Lay down the cards As she begin to read. What a farce I think to myself I really need to leave
Do I believe? Couldn’t speak Decide to play her game Painted hands With Golden Rings I finally ask “How did you know my name?
Accent change All a game She says with a grin. "You haven’t changed From your work uniform silly girl And your name is on your pin." © 2010 My Fair LadyReviews
