I see Loki in the mischief of children, in the all-knowing glints in the eyes of pranksters and jokers. I see Loki in the crackle of a fire, wild and untamed ready to consume or warm, cook or burn. I see Loki in the iridescence of snake skin, constantly shedding the old for the new. I see Loki in the inky darkness of night, a blanket over the sinners and sinisters, the fools in life and the fools in love. I see him in the red hands of thieves, clutching silver and gold. I see him in the silvertongues of liars, sleek and cunning when they wrap around words. I see Loki in the chaos of destruction. I see him in the dark spots behind the eyes of lovers in covers and mothers in labor. He is beautiful, painful, necessary. He is as scary as life and as peaceful as death.
