  • casting a glam

    ever to changeling
    given to folk & cunning 
    ever at wild, ever of wode
    given to seething & wood

    hands see & eyes hear
    many the calling beneath
    bury the heart under leaves
    bury the bone under loam

    ever to changeling
    given to folk & cunning 
    ever at wild, ever of wode
    given to seething & wood

  • waystation waiting

    at the waystation waiting
    on the medicine train 
    with a spirit at the wander
    all the stars in glittershine
    pouring towards winter stone

    i've enough of
    mirage and mirrors
    all sacrificed now in
    pressing thorn to bone

    whistle calling
    as razor cuts the dawn

    wunjo
    a wish, then
    since it is cold outside &
    i am cold within as well
    for the warmth of spring
    on the breath of wind
    with this coin tossed
    to dark waters below

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

    Today’s rune is wunjo, which is translated as “joy” and has been interpreted in both the earthly sense as well as in spiritual ecstasy. It has been associated with healing (emotional, mental and interpersonal) and some sources connect the rune to luck, the act of making a wish, or applied will. Wunjo can also be the inspiration for creativity.

    hagalaz
    dry lips shedding skin
    with a raw aching to be
    bruised once again

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

    Today’s rune is hagalaz, which has a core meaning of “hail”, which was associated with potential, transformation, renewal and change; hail is imagined a seed from which change will arise. Hagalaz is also seen as representative of things beyond our control: a clash between fire and ice.

    sowilo
    a sputtering candle flame
    from a shack in wildwood
    perhaps there is something
    illuminated in the wode old face

    or maybe just a desire to dream

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

    Today’s rune is sowilo, the sun. Sowilo is the source of enlightenment, for lighting the way and illumination. It is also called the “icebreaker” and gives power to an “attack”, ensuring success and/or prosperity. This rune also represents hope, the light at the end of a long darkness.
