A Rant

Stargazers, cardturners
teaswirlers, readers of palms
Hear Me!
With all prognosticators
I have a bone to pick.

It sticks in my craw,
your cracked claim
to leap the Wall and return
bearing pearls of prophecy
in your cloven hooves
to lay before the gullible.

Upon the smallest of my toenails,
a catalogue of your virtues could be writ large.

Your prevaricative obtuseness
niggles me.
Your smugness when coincidence bestows veracity
rankles me.
Your refusal to prostrate before the true god of Science
ENRAGES ME!

Robert Douglas Hickey
