In the season they call SAD, when the clouds refuse to blink, And rain is just sky sweat with delusions of grandeur, She came like a banshee on a Bonneville, Tyres hissing spells in the petrol duskâ A woman? No. A prophecy in leather and eyeliner, Named Albertine, Long-suffering wife of Death himself, Who sulks in a wheelchair and smokes cloves ironically.
Her hair: a demi-wave abyss. Her smile: pure tarot seduction, One glance and even the moon blushed, Then wept behind cirrostratus shame.
Oh, Albertine! You ride like prophecy, Read palms with a sneer, And throw cards with such venom They hit truths no therapy ever could.
She is palmist, astrologer, Tarot priestess of all things doomed, With a Motorhead patch sewn onto her soul And eyeliner sharp enough to open portals.
By her side, in his wheeled throne of bone, Death groans through another solstice, Wearing a âDonât Talk To Me Iâm Mourningâ T-shirt. She calls him Mad Moon Ms. in public. He hates it. We love her more.
They arrive at Ritual Panic, That sacred sabbat of forgetting where you put the damn wand. She lights incense that smells like resentment and rosemary. He levitates just to show off. She tells your future with a flick of the wrist And a voice that sounds like bourbon-soaked prophecy:
âYouâll fall in love with a ghost and regret everything but the kissing.â
Full Moon Tantrum follows, When the skies go hormonal And witches cry glitter. She dances. Oh gods, she dances. The kind of dance that ends marriages and starts cults.
You ask,
âAlbertine, are you a goddess?â And she just laughs, Blows smoke in your face, And says, âNo love. Iâm worse. Iâm aware.â
Post-Script from Death (dictated, not written): âIf you see her again, run. Sheâll read your birth chart, your palm, your doom, and your libido. Sheâll burn through your soul like itâs a sage bundle on discount. But gods... what a sexy ass.â
