Something sudden; atypical, new–
I’m shocked, surprised, and dumbfounded too.
Is this a gift from meditation?
Leftovers from reincarnation?
I feel synchronicity at work;
it may be my spirit’s payback perk.
I think that the Ouija foretold this
as well as that weird astrologist
but voices in my head give a shout.
Before you leap, you’d better watch out!
I stop just in time to realize
that I wasn’t being very wise,
and need not choose my life mate yet
but breathe deep and pat my pet
and remember–
If wishes were horses beggars would
ride and I don’t see any riding.
