    isaz
    quenching raging flames to
    let passions give to slumber &
    burn low with eyes half-closed
    embracing winter beauty as
    ephemeral as the dream

    A rune poem, based on an Elder Futhark rune selected at random.

    Today’s rune is isaz, a rune that is translated as the word “ice”. Sources associate isaz with a calmness, present moment or stillness. As ice, isaz is sometimes associated with standstill, stagnation, stasis or contraction; even at times as pristine beauty with seductive qualities.

    linger now, maple leaf
    but unfrozen come spring

    isaz
    not unlike sun-spangled snow
    your beauty brilliantly blinds
    binds me to something bright
    that i can never have, i am left to
    living as your shadow instead
