My Devil Swagger

Mystical poem written July 3, 2026.

Salve, Stranger,
Are you lost?
Do you seek guidance?
No, let us be lost together,
And see if we can find a path

With two wicks a candle,
Burns twice as fast,
And twice as bright,
Yet nonetheless,
Darkness embraces us

So let us hold hands,
Together in the twilight,
Let us whisper secrets,
And giggle,
As our shadows lengthen

For what else is initiation,
But being let in on the joke,
Read in on the mission,
Reminded who you were always,
Already born to be?

Art: Odilon Redon, “Mystical Conversation”, (1896).
