Inari god of the favored
Your kitsune's cunnery fills the earth with sly tricks,
A thousand glowing orbs, in a thousand blessed temples
Small spirited imprints of your fiery ones,
Fine beautiful tails ripple behind,
Each one a representative of a new glowing life
Oh great Inari grant me this
Nine gleaming new tails is my fox-word wish

- Title: Inari
- Artist: Nightingaleshadow
- Description: A poem I wrote about Inari the god of rice and fox. To help understand: kitsune’s: Inari’s woman messengers. The glowing orbs are what people said the kitsune’s spirits looked like. Every hundred years the foxes grow a new tail until they have nine, then after the nine hundred year, they die. A fox-word is a sort of vow, or promise, or a way of saying I want something
