The Parents



Who stole thy heart my darling

What trickery was there done?

The Mother of All Living 
Forgot about The Sun.
 He was a little devious and Wanted to have fun.


The Father was put to punishing

Under Mother’s bitter shun.


He whimpered for his daughters

For She would not compete.


Tied and tethered to a stone and Sunken in the deep.


No prayer or pleas could ever save the Weak!

You hide in shame as she goes about Her slaughters

Stand up you coward! 

There are no Meek!

You are of Light and Dark, dear fool, Leave the playing to the Otters.



You thought you were Love from above My vicious sleeping One.

You told God you could love above Him
. Ho! Ho ha Haha ha!
Be careful what you wish for hun!


But there was a Spark of Light ever so Dim
. Ocean placed the Heart in the Ugly swans
 and like the Grinch her Heart grew three times Grim.


Silly Monsters you can not win what is Already won



I can see who you are, my darling Mother

And we can pretend all is fine

But do not believe I will let you make Me suffer

We are victims of the same kind

Let go of all your trinkets and take Cover

We are not alone nor forgotten and You will see this in time

Loki is within me to give back what he Had took 
my hand is on the Rutter and His is on his Hook.
