A Political Forecast
Karl Constantine FOLKES 1935 (Portland)
Bidden or not ever bidden.
Harris will prevail.
In one way or another way.
Harris will not fail.
The stars have cast their horoscopes.
Harris will not quit.
Our destinies are theirs to make.
Harris will stay fit.
So let us not decide her fate.
The stars know better.
Though we may ponder with all might.
Harris is go-getter.
Bidden or not ever bidden.
With Harris maligned.
The die is cast for her to rise.
The stars are aligned.
About this poem
Intuition is a gift of the gods. It is given, even when not asked for; subjectively pronounced, emotionally rendered, not solicitous of the intellect. Intuition is bedfellow of discernment. They sleep and wake together; as bosom partners that give us insight; sight that comes from within, of that which is to be; of that which will become; the rising of a woman with the setting of a man.
