every element
of self
i took eyes on
and thirsted
for my knowing
deeply

Into the pot
I went
salt and bone
melding
nourishment
A Lokean Devotional Vignette
“You can’t keep suppressing yourself anymore,” Loki says, measuring my reaction.
I dissolve into tears. “I know…”
“Allow yourself. Experience you.”
I peeled off old purpose
like a Sunday dress
and stepped nude
outside
wrapped in
cobalt
blue butterflies
young with wisdom
creature, feminine
dressed in soul
my chest
bled
love
into hands
to hold it.
Broke through
shell left behind
loosing pearls
between teeth
shedding
in the pines
Paper thick
shedding my skin
feathery leather
porous enough
to let the light through.
Milk of the pine
bark skin split
dribbling through the crevice
sticky trail
new plans
Split tinder
cured oakwood
His grin, wild
I spark into
flames
