Loki-Loom Poem by S.W. Clark

In a forest dusk
of pontine gloom
lives a lonely creature called
Loki-Loom.
He listens for to espy
another one named Lori-Lei.
'She calls me low
She calls me high
pernicious voice
of Lori-Lei.'
Loki left Midgarth
were he did dwell
and buried him deep
toward inner Hell.
He met there Minos who asked him 'Why
to go so far for a Lori-Lei.'
'She called me low
She called me high
pernicious voice
of Lori-Lei.'
Loki was handed a ball of thread
and given the chance to go back instead,
but he tossed hope's opportunity aside,
and said 'With my love I'll always abide.'
'She's calling me low
then calling me high
pernicious voice
of Lori-Lei.'
Tears did stream
from somber eyes
This poor lost soul
in surprise
he found his love in another's arm
and feel to his knees from cartiac harm.
'But you called me low
then called me high
pernicious voice
of Lori-Lei.'
So what can we say of this tale of love,
One-sided devotion is not from above.
For both must give if love is true
or one will suffer from a heart turned blue.
'She'll call you low
then call you high
pernicious voice
of a Lori-Lei.'
