HOROSCOPE

 

Today the stars are accurate

My personal cosmos

reduced to a few short sentences and

second person pronouns:

You might be left trying to tie up loose ends of a situation.

Be willing to say “no” if you can’t handle anymore.

 

This stubborn Bull is ready to charge

anything, anyone in her way

Seeing red,

the tantalizing cape before her eyes,

she stomps the ground

paces in the mud

snorting out her nostrils a defiant NO

provoked, enraged by too many banderillas in her shoulder

waiting for the moment

to stab the grand matador with his own lance.
