Random Poem:

The Curse of Being a Piscean II
trochee

On February 14, 2007, Mercury, the cosmic trickster,
 1
turns retrograde in Pisces
 2
the sign of the Fishes, sending communications,
 3
travel, appointments and mails into a mosaic of crises.
 4
When Mercury is retrograde,
 5
thinking is more introspective
 6
reconsider personal views and opinions for prospective.
 7
 
 
Mercury retrograde in Pisces
 8
creates mental and emotional confusion,
 9
especially people who work with their minds or their wits
 10
solely depend on intuition.
 11
 
 
You risk exploitation and loss of your own needs, ideas, and talent
 12
you really must watch that tendency to play the martyr.
 13
Everything finally straightens out on March 28,
 14
so trust your natural psychic powers
 15
And aim smarter.
 16
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
So much to think
 17
and a lot to worry about,
 18
when all I need to do is
 19
ask her out.
