This is one of my favorites of Gail's - she reads it well, too.


The Gypsy Woman Tells Your Fortune

You will make a juorney over water.
How large a body of water
I cannot say.

You will marry once for love
and once for money,
and whichever comes first,
you'll wish it had been the other.

You will eat too much salt.
Doctors will begin telling you
to slow down.

Something you never heard of
will kill your parents.
You will not be ready to take their place.

Your job will be less satisfactory
than you thought it would be.
So will your children.

Your car will break down
when you can least afford it.

When all else seems hopeless
you will meet a mysterious stranger.
it will be you.
