Flipped
Folded
Fate!
Seventy-Eight in all,
only three required for you.
Define your past,
present,
and your future as well.
I tell all.
No trick of the light,
nor slight of hand.
Thirteen!
Transition through life.
Inevitability of death,
at ones door.
You may take a chance,
if you dare.
Or keep fate hidden from view
All is up to you.
Take a glimpse at your future.
Be warned,
for fate!
lies with me.
Now go ahead,
I’m eager to shine.
Flipped
Folded
Fate!
Is it true?
Maybe.

what a wonderful read
really liked the drop down, unveiling format
both for its metaphorical insight
and its natural poetic flow,
thank you for sharing, dear poet
(sadly until I listen to the song, eventually
I know little of the context or meaning behind it
but I'm hopeful
the message is a seemingly positive one)
might be worthwhile to include a link
so future (lazy) readers like me
can quickly gain an appreciation for your write
inclusive of its meaningful context
especially, the numerical references
