Spied in crystal a whirlwind begins
With fate and fare the orbuculum spins
White fogged mirrors where futures adhere
Hidden within the confines of the sphere
Fortune-telling of that which is foretold
The gifted performance a revelation to behold
Clairvoyance an ancient art to the eye
Soaked in gypsy’s blood they scry
Cast to the heavens the lovers before liars
And send down below dense smoke before fires
Eugi’s Weekly Prompt: Crystal Ball
