Loki Poems


Loki

Smoke.
Works every time.
Want a challenge?
Mirrors.
Illustrator of illusions.

Light is the corruption, political parties -
Light is the greed, the wars, the nukes.

How can you not see it?
BLINDNESS....
Too much sun.

Pitch black.
So who is darker than who_?
Feed the beast.
The devil switched jerseys.

Pass you the ball but, break your nose.

Loki

The heir to Jotunheim
A prince orphaned to war,
He grew up a brother to Thor
In the divine halls of Asgard.

The God of Mischief, he is called
True to his cunning and charm
He keeps daggers up his arm
You never know what scheme he is on. 

He was not fond of Odin
But he deeply loved his mother
He learned his

I Am the Flame Dancer

I dance round a ring wreathed in flames 
Leaping spinning never burning 
I am the flame dancer 
I spun my circles around the leaping fire 
Souring as my fiery wings can take me
I dance around the sun never ceasing my flaming dance 
I am the flame dancer eternally on fire
I am ever inspired to dance

Sigyn's Wedding Day:Dedicated To Tina Eidam

I remember the day well though long has it been
Tied to the cold stone slab as I am
Buried in a cave made of sand
On a vanishing isle of heather
The memory hastens me back to happier times of mead, 
Food and of wedding bells chimes:
Her plain face flushed with joy and triumph
Flowing locks wrapped in flowers

Loki's Lament and Curse Part 4 By Thomas Laufey

Odin:
The crimes of the father 
Reach out to the son you yourself has agreed to that 
Old as you are.
Loki: 
Then you Odin are truly cursed
Even more so than me
And I had never agreed to that when it came
To any of the aesir, vanir or jotun.
Unless we were in a time of war.
And Thor and

Loki's Lament and Curse Part 3 By Thomas Laufey

Loki:
Sigyn and Angrboda know their wyrd well
Even the far seeing eye of odin 
Does even the all seeing eye have its faults?
The curse of knowledge or forgetfulness perhaps 
Angrboda is born of the blood of the volva 
She knows well the fates and
wyrd of men and immortals alike
The mother of wolves, my lovely consort
Sigyn my

My child hela,shall lead an army of the dead against thee
 to which all the einherjar shall die or flee
And freyr to fall by

Loki's Lament and Curse Part 1 By Thomas Laufey

loki:
For nine nights only your own will had bound you
to the World ´s Tree, you treacherous God,
while I wore a chain that I chose not, forever:
With cruel fetter my freedom you took!"

Odin:
"Too cunning and unpredictable you were, too wild to roam free:
Greater your strength and hunger in magick and in power 
Then even my own,

Baldr's Song

I am in Hell’ my dear father 
And we cannot be together 
You’ll not give me last advice
You’ll not back me paradise.

I was killed by crafty Loki 
In Death garden I am walking
Cry my mother cry my wife
Mistletoe has taken life.

I’m still waiting Resurrection
I have tired of disconnection
I am god of human spring,
But I’m running

Fated To Destroy

I care for nothing
Or so you say—
Well, yes, I agree.
But when someday
The fates proclaim
That you are he who
Will bring doom upon
The world all once knew—
When, from your birth
You've always knkwn
That you are destruction,
Well, you simply don't
Bother to care
About anything, really.
Everything, after all, 
Seems so small, so silly
Compared to the dusk;
To the apocalypse that will
Descend upon

Loki

Loki son of giant's
and bender of rules
Trickster of gods
Ignorer of fools
He's the sight of the spring time
The sower of oats
Deity of mayhem
Of fire and smoke

The Tragedy of Loki and Freyja

It happened in the world called Asgard
Never heard by human ears
The history of one heart, scarred
And moved by love and fear

It's the story of a liar
Loki was his name
His heart of ice catched fire
The goddess Freyja was to blame

But he failed to tell her
And she moved on alone;
Now listen to what occured
In front of mighty

Loki

 Loki
In days of Old Norse
Tales of the trickster were heard
Stories of his deeds
The sly one, the shape changer
Had wicked tricks up his sleeve

Loki had two sides
Bringing treasures to the Gods
Then he brings chaos
The blood brother to Odin
The legend that is Loki
