The hanged man

gravity pulling a world to opposite
encouraging us to see
life from another's perspective-

a restful card
perhaps absurd in its clashing colours
its image

a feeling of odd-
                       which way
up?

is there a need for a right way?
-the full
circle-

take away learned ideas & learn a new
nakedness falls
moves with natures laws

inner changes
outer appearances remain unaffected
unchanged

there is a joker in this card
an illusionist
a trickster
