  ENTWINED

For me,
I have no wish to read
the stars and signs
or dots and lines of
astrology and palmistry.

They may
foretell my future fate,

things good or bad

that lie in wait.

 
But it is I
who move the wheel.
And it is I
who stand or kneel.

I only wish
my heart be strong
to endure hardship
and my head be wise
to discern things.
Let them be entwined with
morale and moral.

If so,
come what may
fortune or misfortune
happiness or sorrow
my door is open.
