Birth cards: Justice and High Priestess.
Must sacrifice and imbibe Chartreuse.
Half and half for the man of fire. I never
considered myself an alchemist. It is what
I always wanted to be! The ego scans the
web for a pestle and mortar suitable for
the next concoction. (I use a bright blue cheese grater.)
No measuring this thyme!
I've tossed dried roses in as lagniappe and tiny statues of busty ladies being groped by tattooed snake kings into letters to Indiana. It is Mardi Gras and the bloody rites of spring! The beast again. Nowhere to run.
To run! Can I get an off switch for this, woman?!?
