The Hierophant

Another Tarot card related poem.

The Hierophant

The spiritual has its own domain of mastery
The Hierophant reaches forth so blessedly
In temporal rule, this part is his allotted span
To guide the truth, set over man
A Pontiff wears the triple crown
And wears a regal flowing gown
Of all the Patriarchs, he is first speaker
Of visions mysterious, the true seeker
He makes the sign of the manifest glory
But concealed behind consignatory
Is the secret wisdom he can wield
That orthodoxy is his shield.
