Hermes, Playing, Facing
of white Welcoming
Shelters,
poplar-shaded,
the shore-grass.
over dubious sea
ways, torn
weather, the ground
hill, below the shadow
of dunes
The many great trees
And there is
Hermes, Hermes
From west,
twisted on
sea-mist
more have gnashed
waited, teeth
the water
my ankles
sails and sea,
twisted mast
called by
the wayfarers
in the wind, hard
answers
It is in chance that we find you
and in chance that you find us

For Hermes the Luck-bringer
Saturday, 14 January 2012
The Lot Cup
Sometimes, in divination, we get a vague answer. Oftentimes, it’s a flat out
“We don’t know either”
“Stop Asking.”
“Yeah, have you heard of the uncertainty principle?”
Sometimes we don’t need to know what the future holds. Oftentimes, its knowledge might not be good for us.
If you’ve read Oedipus and other self-fulfilling prophecies, you might feel thankful that you don’t know what the future holds. So next time you get an answer depicting an unspecified future, rejoice in uncertainty. You’ll be spinning that wheel of fortune without knowing where it would land. Uncertainty can be exciting if you let it.
