Little bird
On the horizon
What trouble have you sought?
Little bird
On the horizon
Are you both mine and not?
Little bird
How you flit
Careless and free
How can you be
So distant from me
smell flowers amongst the concrete
sirens through a megaphone
cops on the sidewalks
buy something from walmart 2.0
happy pride
There once was a human shaped all out of teeth and people thought them kind because they had learned to show the flats.
A thing skitters
Understand
Caution, cautioned
All at once
A thing skitters
Yearn and burn for it
Satiety?
Tantalus weeps
A thing skitters
Privileged
Careless care
How cold is its warmth
A thing skitters,
Privileged, understand, yearn and burn for it.
Careless care, caution, satiety?
How cold its warmth, all at once.

World building
The hierarchy of demons, such as it is, is derived from the quantity of souls held and the relative strength of their vices.
Souls can only be captured by being summoned by a mortal who then accepts a bargain. The bargain in fact traps the mortal in a pocket dimension inside one of the demon’s eyes. For this reason it’s unusual to see a demon with fewer than five eyes.
Inside the pocket dimension the soul is allowed to indulge its predominant vice until it is exhausted at which point the soul is consumed and the eye disappears.
Each pocket dimension is hosted by an imprint of the demon. They share consciousness but are unconstrained in their focus, referring to each other as sibling-self, with gender labels varying as applicable.
Demons can only be summoned by use of their true name, which can never be written down correctly. They can whisper in dreams although this is less than reliable. It’s not unheard of for someone stringing together random sounds to summon a demon but it usually goes poorly.
So let’s revisit this world since I’m thinking about actually writing a story set here. We need some conflict so let’s set up an opposition.
There’s a church set up around the veneration of saints/angels. The church suffered a schism over whether the saints were incarnated celestial beings or if the angels were ascended human spirits. Both sects sponsor demon hunters. The demon hunters are guided by saint angels to places where the demons have been whispering to people to get summoned.
Low fantasy? Tech level… variable? Vignettes? This might work better as a collection of stories than as a single narrative. I could see it working well spread across time.

A poem for my by'ilil-nia. @potorch
when the sunsets are faded
to make me believe i am good
i've been smoking hard but
i've got more in my pocket
.
i want to whisper at your mouth
how we've been getting off and now
we're poetry through every vow
just until you break the blood
.
i want to lick your face, love
this is a confusing world
it's blood; ripple off and shatter
and i'll scare you right where you are
.
i want to fuck under dirty stars
i'll meet you at the top of your car
a lot less disguised than smoky bars
we're going too far, too far
.
i want to meet you at the inside
you're a rainbow on the slide
and i'm singing storms in the night
as long as it's glorified
.
i want to leave the world behind
but, if that's it, then you'll be mine
we can start living for the good times
i've been getting off the bottom line
Poetry game
The seed line is “blood”
Blood
Everywhere it flows
In veins and halls and highways
Paths and culdesacs
Capillary tangles
Blood
A world saturated
Spilled for love, for hate, for apathy
Heart and limbs bled clean
Soaked and drowning
Blood
Life, it travels
So far and not at all together
Fear and love without distinction
Lost in flow
Poetry game. The seed line is “blood, falling like raindrops”
Blood, falling like raindrops
You, shining like the sky
Love and death and love and death
Needlessly, imagine I am kind
Blood, falling like raindrops
Wounds, kisses, you and I
Love and death and love and death
How fortunate, we find

Poetry game. The seed line is “love is blood rushing to”
Love is blood rushing to
A heart, a lung, a hand
Crushing, speaking, touching
Love is blood rushing from
A heart, a lung, a hand
Burdened with the burning ache of knowing
Knowing known
A scene
Person A: I’ve been having trouble with my brain again. The useless thoughts are back.
Person B: oh, what useless thoughts?
A: you know, like I am the destroyer and the end of all things.
B: oh shit, are you a demon?
A: maybe, what’s a demon?
B: you know what a demon is, everyone does!
A: demon, from the Greek daimon, meaning a god or protective spirit, contemporarily contrasted with angel, from the Greek angelos, meaning messenger. Socrates is believed to have had an instructive eudaimon that granted him wisdom.
B: so, then, are you a eudaimon?
A: oh, you know, I try to give good advice. 😉

A snippet
As she broke the kiss her summoner noticed tears of black pitch leaking from her hollow obsidian eyes.
“Gods below, how I’ve wanted you,” she said, starting to smile. “And now you’re mine!” She laughed, fangs flashing.
What is pain?
What is loss?
What is letting go before its time?
What is a question if not a shield?
The distance of inquiry making of an ocean a cup
To try to drown in

What, then, fate?
Is it joining and drawing apart,
For if not the latter
Then how the former?
We walk our paths.
What, then, fate?
Not all doors lie open
But why?
Trace the lines.
Make your choice.
What, then, fate?
Can you see the never-meant?
Love is ours
Creation, possession, derivation
What truer claim than this?
What, then, fate?
We learn to lie with our souls
So they will think we are like them
We pare and prune the parts we love the most
To appear something they will trust
And then we learn
That betrayal is believing the mask.
