<h1>Stan</h1>
<p>Traditional meaning: keystone</p>
<p>Meanings when upright:</p>
<ul>

<li>either affirm a belief or abolish it</li>
<li>(in middle of reading) you're on the right track</li>
</ul>
<p>Meanings when inverted:</p>
<ul>
<li>an intention to keep a promise</li>
</ul>

<p>There is not a known Norwegian or Anglo-Saxon rune poem for Stan.</p>
<p>A modern poem:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Either with full throat believe<br/>
or throw it to the streets.<br/>
There is no room for ambivalence<br/>
when it comes to making yourself free.<br/>
If you yourself do not care,<br/>
then who will care for you?<br/>
If you wish not to escape this hole,<br/>
not even the strongest can your body exhume.</p>
<p>You're striving to decorate your jail<br/>
so hard no energy is left<br/>
to break through the Veil.<br/>
So bogged down with minutae<br/>
of strangers hundreds of miles away<br/>
you forget to attention pay<br/>
to the wife<br/>
that lies<br/>
beside<br/>
you.</p>
<p>Lethe, I with burning heart desire<br/>
that you hold me as your only standard<br/>
if you insist that veneration to a deity<br/>
is the natural state of humanity.<br/>
If you have to succumb to your nature<br/>
as a vessel of pure action,<br/>
the only caretaker I will accept<br/>
is the only one who shares your passions.</p>
<p>Are we doing this<br/>
or not?</p>
