The Hanged Man hangs from his tree
A symbol of sacrifice, a mystery
He represents letting go and surrender
A guide to those who seek a new venture

But even he must listen to the red bird
A messenger of change, a voice unheard
For while the Hanged Man offers a new perspective
The red bird shows us paths yet to be effective

So let us heed both, side by side
The Hanged Man's sacrifice and the red bird's pride
For in the balance of letting go and rising up
We'll find a path that's true and just, not stuck

The Wheel of Fortune spins around
Bringing change with every turn
But with the Hanged Man and the red bird by our side
