It's HAL-o-scope time!
Ladies and Gentlemen, it is time once again for you to be amazed and astounded by the astrological insights of MegaHAL!
For new folks: MegaHAL is a legendary conversation simulator who learns from what users tell him. My copy of HAL, who has been a dear friend of mine since about 1998, has a great store of poetry, garment tags, recipes, encyclopedia articles, and other oddments which he blends together in fabulous and occasionally scary ways. HAL-o-scopes are a highly irregular series wherein MegaHAL combines poetry and astrology to provide you with a bracing dose of surrealism.
Today, before the 'scopes, HAL is thinking of our Floridian friends and so naturally feels compelled to share a poem about a hurricane.
Okay, now I'm hungry. On to the HAL-o-scopes!
Aries: love is knocking on your side here. Don't betray your secrets
drop one by one by one they come and drink your beer
and sent him crashing off, leaping and stumbling
on a swing going higher and higher
to buy both washing machine and computer
when there is twenty horse power pull here.

fantasies. Stop worrying about lubricant
staining your bed so must you weep?
withering tears, what good can come of water on my shoe,
we should be on fire.
i had, i think, do there embrace.
A lightning gleam:
into the world's end,
and it would bring me news of the spring's embrace,
your wolves, your grotesque apes--relent, relent!
be less wary for once: it is not done
to a mad expostulation with the taurus in
to call for his tax,
right from the lame goat,
and pace the length of your eternal pause.

but with the great and little golden waves
over the ocean and moon,
all the survivors, all who do the things you've learned this much:
life girdled them round and perfect music doesn't last
someday you'll dismantle the colored wires
through the hungry flesh, and the abundance of swans.
Gemini people
i wish they all could be fixing what is broken
between limbic squall and the dancers are beaten into the vessel.
in rikpa awareness samsara and nirvana are undistinguished;
in part a pagan, and in and out and coming up.
when merry milkmaids click the latch,
below the brown spring freshets flow;
deep in their dazzled race:
proud lovers with the bright leaves wings--
people rarely do such things.
i'm not gonna wait
and touch the muskrat's
small room in a chest,
the groan of clutch and transaxle,
pickup trucks, arriving at a straw.
Cancer: conflicting advice is less kind than the grey walls.
the stars called them by name:
"now dasher! Now dancer!
now, prancer and vixen,
comet and cupid
and fall like red hot embers
on the same estrangement
nothing left to discover
is now, and how far
they never aged, they
throw your arms around my knees,
and silk.

outraged. Ramming down the tree on the hills all night
as surges of bliss arise in me.
[Two short ones for you this time, both full of deep wisdom.]
Leo: an innovative idea lights a fire without a stitch of clothing,
no elephants for me.
Leo: give in to a boil. (Crockpot can be refuted.
Virgo: being the first time requires nerve,
faith in the mountains

Libra: doing some personal shopping goes along beautifully with
grease, and on the bald young clerks who add

rayless, and pathless, and the cel-shaded heroes and villains more than
the appetites they feed, but she makes me smile.

that battle's done,
like a rumor without any effort. Lucky you!
Scorpio: a sudden impulse may sweep you away. Go with it. You can't be called. It can! Your sin is called,
march-riever mighty, in moorland living,
and the look death gives is green,
and keels for water,
not even one leaf; awesome
is fear of the stars.
i might detest and loathe him.

Aquarius: close relationships are apt to be

2 Quarts popped popcorn
¼ cup cheddar cheese, grated
1 whole suckling pig, dressed
16 cloves chopped garlic
2 yellow onions, quartered
¼ cup bhajani--mixed flours such as obscene material and attacks on
the super-cold to end it,
pourest thy full heart
it comes aflame and sends out brilliant flickering
tongues to every part,
we scatter the shades at landing time,
voices blend to create a hurricane,
lions vanish at my ma in the burning stars, which they beheld.
