The Babylonian Rag



The Babylonian Rag
Is an oracle of sorts

With a whole page devoted
to predictions and projections

Their hot-line is a number
to phone up on my birthday

They charge in cents per minute
Below a small star.

There's an email address
for my lucky lottery numbers

And a website to visit
With books there to buy.

They list their 12 signs
from Virgo to Leo

And turn a blind eye
to the doctor - Ophluchus.

The paper is free.
It keeps me warm in the winter.
