    uruz
    iron pierced these & thistle,
    in nettle & thunderhead

    dredge of horn furrows
    over open & naked hand

    lost teardrops
    lightning shatters sky

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

    Today’s rune is uruz. The rune is named after the now-extinct aurochs, a wild ox and has become associated with standing up to challenges, having both confidence and courage, stubborn tenacity, and boundless strength and health. Uruz is alternately associated with the more raw elements which include rain, primordial potential, and the slag/dross cast away during the making of iron.

    uruz
    hungry for a springtime rut
    the aurochs wanders
    misty morning moors

    uruz
    slag cooling in drizzle grey
    trampled & gone back to mud
    under the muscle ache

    uruz
    spring moult, rough granite
    aids to cast off old morns
    gathering on melting snows;
    an amble off to new moors

    uruz
    cold drizzle falls
    on stiff unyielding backs;
    we endure as they
    break their brittle metal
    on our hardened resolve
