Masquerade
‘He goes by many names –
Loki, God of mischief,
Mara, the deceiver.
In the dark arts of misdirection and illusion
He is peerless,’
Says Cecil.
I am looking at a green electricity junction box
Concreted into the ground.
Cecil senses my confusion.
His beam widens
Like an interdimensional rift.
