i've been getting this card
from the golden tarot which is coming to be my favorite these days
it's weird how they cycle through
and what that says about you [meaning me, see]
it reminds me of high school art history
and the greek festival
going on the chapel tour to see the icons
but the priest was really cool
he explained about communion being made with real bread, baked by the congregants
i picture the women (i'm assuming mostly) and their range of possible
what am i trying to say here
motivations
the bread is cut into small cubes
or perhaps torn into small pieces, i find i'm not sure
put in a spoon with wine
to sop it up
join the flesh with the blood
those people
they know how to experience a transmogrification
isn't that unhygienic, someone asks
no one has ever gotten sick from experiencing the communion
[he probably didn't say the communion
he probably said the sacrament
but, truthfully, i don't remember the words
and
from art history class-- remembering the excitement of giotto
that point when they got again the concept of perspective
but this image
it's hard to explain, taps into klimt and the great wave off kanagawa
it;s my favorite card of the deck, possibly
is that too weird
i have these fragments--
the fantasy where we're on the half shell like botticelli
but, ya know, lying down
and the shell isn't empty
and i spend a bunch of time figuring out:
is it some oystery creature
or some finely wrought velvet cloth
gotta know that before i continue with the rolling around
feeling your weight on me
what's that like
how would you be
it don't often imagine that
that's dangerous ground
but i kinda wanna know
what are you like, with me
