Knowledge is but a noose

When nothing is nourished

A nonentity treated like novelty

Asking for openness

You turned to inwardness

Years of work feeling wasted

I cannot continue

With this constant conflict

Conjuring a noxious narrative

Holding onto hope

Hræsvelgr's hurricane

Hurls me from this tempest of torment

In solitude do I sit

Surrendered to the sensation

You gave no sanctuary or solace to my soul

[djpattymc]

Wounded Wanderer

Vilified for voyaging

Vicinal to vestige

To the rock-path do I roam and vanish

Drained by dread

Detriment of dear to heart

Desolate and destined to drown

Terrified of betrayal

To be taken and torn-apart

A traitor to my inner emotions

Stretching my strength

Stayed by the Storm-bringer

I stumble, stricken with strife

I clamour at the cliff-side

Clawing at closure

To cultivate careful connection

Mist-Walker

New-light comes with nothingness

Niflheim has left me numb

A nomad in this formless fog

Misunderstood is the mist

The manufacturer of my maladie

Muninn has left me lonely

As I travel tirelessly

The trail my trial

Losing my trust in love

In this harrowing haze

Huginn is hidden

Herewith I search for solace

Woefully do I write

Withdrawn as I wander

The lost light but a wonder

[djpattymc]

Remnant

Heavy hangs the heart

That which harbours my harm

A wound woven into its host

A scream to the skies

The sky-eyes my scribes

A new skald from the sunken sea-hills

Fallen is my faith

The funeral-pyre of fervour

To Freyja my thoughts I forfeit

Broken is my breath

As though beaten by Balur’s-bane

Love the one lingering torment

[djpattymc]

Frost Foot

Fast as the leaves fall

Framing the cold light-jewel

Setting with the death of summer

Restricted flows the raven’s-wine

A slow river of revival

Racing with each sinking step

Yearning to escape

The icy Jötun’s-breath

Lying over-top the landscape

Straying is my stride

Though I stand sturdy

The sea-rib my safe haven

Glacial is the grass-bed

Swept-over by Göndul

Come to guide me to the Hallowed halls

[djpattymc]

Sea Dream

Into slumber send me

Then might I slowly fade

Down into the frigid depths

Travel to the trail’s-end

To find my true-North

Following my first love

I wish for the whale-road

The white layer of foam

The sweet taste of salt-air

Resting on the rocks

I await the raging tide

My home from which I was grown
