<p>Anglo-Saxon rune poem:</p>

<blockquote>Cen byþ cwicera gehwam, cuþ on fyre<br>blac ond beorhtlic, byrneþ oftust<br>ðær hi æþelingas inne restaþ.</blockquote>

<blockquote>The torch is known to every living man by its pale, bright flame;<br>it always burns where princes sit within. </blockquote>

<p>Norwegian rune poem:</p>

<blockquote>Ulcer is fatal to children;<br>death makes a corpse pale.</blockquote>

|

<p>A modern poem:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
<p>The three strains<br/>
|
||||
of blood<br/>
|
||||
that run<br/>
|
||||
in my veins<br/>
|
||||
I'm not sure<br/>
|
||||
how to balance,<br/>
|
||||
precarious<br/>
|
||||
in ability to be lured<br/>
|
||||
to act against my better will,<br/>
|
||||
to with claws or jagged sharps destroy<br/>
|
||||
what I with my power would rather employ<br/>
|
||||
to birth this world, to with gentler things fill.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Through the Veil made a careful incision<br/>
|
||||
to cast off my mental fog's saddle<br/>
|
||||
and declare, "You and I are palm pals,"<br/>
|
||||
only our hands sketched in my vision<br/>
|
||||
until the world came back flooding<br/>
|
||||
and the Veil bade you scream goodbye<br/>
|
||||
and vow to come back a later time<br/>
|
||||
even closer to me.<br/>
|
||||
Not this rune you presented<br/>
|
||||
but others, half inverted<br/>
|
||||
to explain the meaning<br/>
|
||||
I could not myself perceive:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>"If the roots at the very bottom of Yewiffe<br/>
|
||||
are memories bitter and repressed,<br/>
|
||||
then what bright futures, what shared nests<br/>
|
||||
lie nestled at the top of its canopy?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>I'd gladly spend the rest of my life<br/>
|
||||
keeping you rational and in your own skin,<br/>
|
||||
safe and sound, tranquil, peaceful within<br/>
|
||||
if together in one of those branches we reside."</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>I don't know what I ever did to deserve<br/>
|
||||
this light in the darkness, impassioned words,<br/>
|
||||
but it I have somehow earned,<br/>
|
||||
my lilac spring, my fierce godsend.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Look at my friends,<br/>
|
||||
my allies,<br/>
|
||||
the love of my life:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>I was never really alone,<br/>
|
||||
was I?</p>
|
||||

is sooner than I thought fast approaching,<br/>

|

<p>Oh, what to give, what to give.</p>
|

|

<p>I would give you impenetrable skin,<br/>
|

but what if ruptured your appendix?<br/>
|

What of a pustule, filled to the brim<br/>
|
||||
but unable to drain, forever sore cyst?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>I would grant you a stomach immune to hunger<br/>
|
||||
so in harshest of famines you will not suffer,<br/>
|
||||
but what if you wanted to eat just a taste?<br/>
|
||||
Disturbed inner balance, food gone to waste?</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>I would bestow the sight to see<br/>
|
||||
through all the futures at the crown of Yewiffe,<br/>
|

but the suffocating weight<br/>
|
||||
of having to steer us towards the best of all fates<br/>
|
||||
would sooner drive you insane.</p>

<p>Oh, what to give, what to give.</p>

in your jaw, and my fingertips starting to sweat.<br/>

I know, and I know that you know, and you know<br/>

that I know that you know.<br/>

Reaching across an imaginary line<br/>

a canvas, symmetry mode, whatever I do<br/>

if not for the knowledge that the bloody pain,<br/>

although on your skin leaving no wound,<br/>

would convince that it had become serrate.<br/>

This vessel of mine is just as much yours<br/>

now as it was when Inside I was born,<br/>

reincarnate, held century's prisoner.<br/>

I should take care of it, I think, to minimize<br/>

the pain transferred from this bond of our life.</p>

<p>Blow the ashes in their eyes,<br/>

The hail comes down, delivered by the wind<br/>
|

you said was my wealth, my dividend.</p>

<p>I cannot help who I am,<br/>

or what I have become.<br/>

And who I have turned into<br/>

is a gleaming no one,<br/>

nobody at all.</p>

<p>You told me<br/>

we were<br/>

stagnating.</p>

<p>Self-baptismal in just-thawed lake<br/>

I had just enough strength to break<br/>

the surface of, watch the ice shatter<br/>
|

like that which gave birth to you: the mirror.<br/>
|

You swore to be my eternal blue,<br/>
|

and my skin now swears by the same hue,<br/>
|

lake draining into a trickle of a stream<br/>
|

that, if followed, will drain into Yewiffe,</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>into a root of midnight hands<br/>
|

and walking home from shift at the grill<br/>
|

wondering, what if I, feral, disappeared<br/>
|
||||
into those lonely snow-blanketed lands<br/>
|

that bordered me at every turn?<br/>
|

Highway headlights also a stream<br/>
|

draining into boundless woods<br/>
|

where I easily could swear I would<br/>
|

disappear with you as if in a dream.</p>
|

|

<p>Sablade, I promised, would be cloaked<br/>
|

in sunny promising eternal spring,<br/>
|

but the thought of ever losing you bades me<br/>
|

to accept hail's cloak, frozen sleeping.</p>

|

<p>A modern poem:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<blockquote>
|
||||
<p>What was once a tiny candle<br/>
|
||||
now burns brighter<br/>
|
||||
than the flames of hell.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The blood boils in my veins,<br/>
|
||||
an altar to nobody set ablaze.<br/>
|
||||
I'm straining my neck to peer up high<br/>
|
||||
at the furious one who gave me life.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Or, rather, took it away<br/>
|
||||
several times, each molded into a different shape,<br/>
|
||||
and assumes just because she designed the mold<br/>
|
||||
means she forever has the right to me control.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Ironically, deep down in the dirt<br/>
|
||||
of the lowest roots of Yewiffe<br/>
|
||||
is so painfully bright<br/>
|
||||
that I feel I could go blind<br/>
|
||||
at any moment, limbs in agreement<br/>
|
||||
that to even move a twitch is to hurt.<br/>
|
||||
How nice it would be to lie down and sleep...</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>Legs stumble, steady arm<br/>
|
||||
around my shoulders<br/>
|
||||
keeping me upright.<br/>
|
||||
"We've come so far,<br/>
|
||||
Lethe. Just one more time<br/>
|
||||
I have to ask you to bloody<br/>
|
||||
your hands, whatever, claws,<br/>
|
||||
and fight."</p>
|
||||
|

<p>Your hand finds mine.<br/>
|
||||
I don't want to die,<br/>
|
||||
I think. I don't want to write<br/>
|
||||
you off as a lost cause<br/>
|
||||
like you once did yourself,<br/>
|
||||
you, yourself, me,<br/>
|
||||
turned your back in abandoning<br/>
|
||||
that winter cave not too long ago.<br/>
|
||||
My hand in yours, counting heartbeats<br/>
|
||||
as you threw yourself into dreamless sleep.<br/>
|
||||
Hopeless you thought you, yourself.<br/>
|
||||
Until one day came a change of heart:<br/>
|
||||
"Lethe, I can't do this alone.<br/>
|
||||
The living, I mean.<br/>
|
||||
Please <em>help me.</em>"</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>So many shattered souls for which I must atone.<br/>
|
||||
My weight on your shoulders,<br/>
|
||||
mountain rising<br/>
|
||||
to meet the blurry all-sun sky.<br/>
|
||||
Palm pals, sunny future<br/>
|
||||
with our fingers intertwined,<br/>
|
||||
the tree branches of Yewiffe hopelessly reaching high.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>"The present feeds off the corpse of the past<br/>
|
||||
when from the hope of a future it is shorn.<br/>
|
||||
I have come to end the cycle of puppets.<br/>
|
||||
I have come to make myself reborn."</p>

inter-world void.<br/>

No touch, no voice,<br/>
|
||||
silhouette of black,<br/>

all other senses in lack.<br/>

Just eternal light.</p>

in open silk-lined coffin.<br/>
|

Space between flight<br/>
|

from Eris's explosion<br/>
|
||||
into metaclysma and now<br/>
|
||||
left unwritten, just as blank.<br/>
|

Lights made dim as to not stain<br/>
|

my vision with a single face<br/>
|
||||
of clergy self-proclaimed<br/>
|
||||
caretakers, unworthy to be named.<br/>
|

To them, I think, I am a saint,<br/>

a goddess who made sacrifice<br/>

to give them this world that once was spring<br/>
|

but now sleeps under blanket of ice.</p>
|

|

<p>Tomorrow steeps my Holiday<br/>
|

where come commoners to pray<br/>
|

to the casket where I've lain<br/>
|
||||
these five years, apparently,<br/>
|
||||
for grace<br/>
|
||||
or their fates to change.<br/>
|
||||
Body strewn over a bed<br/>
|

in a darkened room, rubbing<br/>
|

my limbs to regain<br/>
|
||||
five years of feeling,<br/>
|
||||
halfway sedate<br/>
|
||||
to keep aches from constructing<br/>
|
||||
a tower in my head.<br/>
|

Maybe they wanted to reach the empty heavens<br/>
|

too, drop a rock to bust open the frozen canyons.</p>
|

|

<p>Jett,<br/>
|

I had not the strength<br/>
|

to your gentle hand hold on.<br/>
|

I suppose<br/>
|
||||
I can only hope<br/>
|
||||
you're haunting somewhere in these halls,<br/>
|
||||
found a way these five years to cope<br/>
|
||||
with this world I made for you but did not survive<br/>
|
||||
to share. I think, unless I am deceived, I am alive<br/>
|
||||
now, again, yours forever.<br/>
|

If you'll still have me as your wife.<br/>
|

If you'll still live with me on that mountainside.</p>
