oh rattlecup the tossbones
dancing ivories jumble
what's at stake i wonder?
only the nothing & the everything
dancing ivories jumble
rattletoss bones to darkgutter
A poem prompted by a randomly selected Elder Futhark rune.
Today’s rune is pertho, which has a disputed meaning and there is some indication that any proposed meanings might be based on a corrupted interpretation. The general consensus is that there is likely some relationship to ørlǫg (fate/destiny), luck/gambling or perhaps hidden knowledge.
Please visit my Elder Futhark pages at sceadugenga.com for additional interpretations of the runes based on multiple references and personal reflection.

The nothing and the everything—yes. Which moments really count, that’s never clear until afterward.
Sometimes they are moments that surprise you for all of their mundane elements.
