Two beggars came to the door
says Odin.
Laborers, or criminals; foreigners, male and dark.
They could not speak our language.
I did not let them inside.
They looked hungry. I will make you a sandwich, I said
says Odin.
I found bread, white loaves. I couldn’t decide whether to spread butter or mayonnaise on the bread. Then I found mayonnaise I had made and thought, it will go bad faster than butter so I had better use it up.
I made them cheese sandwiches with mayonnaise and sliced cheese that was beginning to go translucent around the edges. I fed them before I woke up
says Odin.
What does my dream mean.
Fear and liminality
says Loki.
You are an old man blind in one eye. Long white hair and beard, and blind in one eye.
but
says Loki.
Still you love the unknown and secret and feed it freely.
Next time feed it something richer than old cheese sandwiches with old mayonnaise.
And see what happens.
Of course the question is, should you take a trickster’s advice.
