To Auspiciousness: 2

Superstition’s childhood friend
Without end or equal
Your masterly precision
As decision’s minister

No constellation wheels amiss
None remiss in their reporting
To you the abacus
Of the earth

Each part of charted worth
Sphere and era logged
And catalogued alike
In a cycle of symbols

Red and seed and cymbals
Garland, flame and gong
Scent and song and marigold
Your stately entrance herald
