That Alchemist's Scene ...

Welcome to The Magician into the glassy maze,
To find the High Priestess perhaps waiting there,
Hidden within that gossamer tapestry
Somewhere waits The Fool,
An actor ready to react to the director's words,
Victim maybe of the folly ,
Perhaps acting a role in the fable of the spider & the fly.
The script is written and the scene gets acted
But which comes first, the chicken or the egg?
Who can say which follows first,
The scene … and it is magician then with the second sight,
who truly writes about the event after it has been enacted
or is it perhaps the script ...the High Priestess then with Director’s chair
Placing her minions into that alchemist's scene
Dictated by what the script demands ....??
