Woden Galder
(by Kincade McComyn)
Know thou thy power, revel in its cost
For the comfort of sunlight, is the ice in the frost
Think thou thy death, runes of unmaking
Learn thou thy might, the lore of life taking
Saga of man, is measured in song
And the tale of example, not in right nor wrong
Think not on his widow, who weeps in the dark
Think not on his children, who naked and stark
Weep not for their father, who’s father is divine
Think only of Sig, and how Sig can be thine
Willst thou in battle, the boar for its sum
For the wolf or the bear, or the raven become
Deny Gods for Men, and destiny meet
Willst thou call on Woden, or stride to his seat
