A TAROT SCIFAIKU

open time capsule
living Tarot archetypes
walk the earth again

A scifaiku is a haiku-inspired poetry form with a science fiction, fantasy, or horror theme. I've been trying my hand at them for many years and really enjoy the scifaiku group I participate in on yahoo. Given my love of The Tarot, it was from the start a foregone conclusion that it would show up in an occasional scifaiku that I write.

I was not thinking of any particular card when I wrote this scifaiku. I was thinking of the deck as a whole. Imagining the characters on them having once been living on our earth in some time-before-time. I chose Judgment to illustrate it because of those opening boxes and also because of one of it's meanings: rebirth. And I have that yahoo scifaiku group to thank for the inspiration because I wrote it as part of one of our scifaiku linked strings. (Each scifaiku added by a new writer is somehow, if only vaguely, connected to the previous.)
