<p>People come and go in my life, and the surfaces of my hands are no different. On my right thumb used to be a vertical scar on the joint that, in my childhood, would part like the beaches of a crimson ocean every winter and then close again come spring. Reacting to the cue of the temperature dropping, like a sliver in the heart to announce the arrival of the indifferent sky and the seasonal purposelessness that came with it. A sliver I would yearn to curl up into, the only color in the grayscale expanse of the season. It wouldn't usually bleed, but it <em>would</em> ache in response to touch. But sometime in my adolesence it stopped appearing, forgot to pick up a ticket for the winter train, decided that the yearly trip to my reality was no longer worth it.</p>
<p class="blink1"><em>Did I do something to repel you?</em></p>
<p class="blink2"><em>Did I do something?</em></p>
<p class="blink3"><em>Did I...</em></p>
<p>"Lethe?"</p>
<p>I don't look at her. I don't break gaze with the new scars across my knuckles. Each a few millimeters long, stinging in their own way when cleaned with soap. But none could ever hope to compete with the childhood thumb scar. Their mother. Their progenitor. The one who died to create a world they could live in.</p>
<p>"<em>Lethe?</em>"</p>
<p>A tassel from my new cloak brushes my hands. For all the months Jett had been working as a seamstress, I'd never been able to find her studio, never been able to visit her. But for my mother's birthday, my grandmother took us both to one in this Inside. She bought us both cloaks, woven on loom by disabled adults looking for dignity in their lives. She wrapped me in one of midnight blue, starlight with the Rainbow Bridge running through it. I looked at the handwritten price tag. I locked eyes with the one who'd made the cloak, who was clacking along on her loom at that moment, who would be for as long as she could see herself in the future.</p>
<p>Did she see any of herself in me? Did she wonder what life would be like if she were independent enough to live on her own? Because I saw myself in her. Saw myself in a future where my disability gets worse and my savings run out and I can't take care of myself anymore and I lose everything I've worked so hard to achieve these past six months. I saw myself in her, and I was spooked into silence for the rest of the trip.</p>
<p>"<em>Lethe!</em>"</p>
<p>Jett sits down beside me, forces open my now-clenched hands. I can see healing papercuts on hers. A new job at the library. Stopgap or new career path, I can't tell.</p>
<p>"Lethe. Breathe. Speak to me."</p>
<p>"I... um..." I wiggle my fingers, one after the other. One is redder than the others, more tender, more sore. "When you worked at the hospital, did you ever have to deal with burn patients?"</p>
<p>"You mean, back at the Town? Not personally."</p>
<p>I show her my finger. "So you <em>can't</em> tell me how much of my body I burned today?"</p>
<p>"Less than one percent." She grabs my arm, lifts it up. "This is nine percent." She drops that arm, grabs the other one, lifts that one. "This is also nine percent." She lets go, pats one of my legs. "Eighteen." Other leg. "Eighteen." Pats the top of my head. "Nine." Looks me right in the eyes as she puts a hand on one of my breasts. "Front of your chest is eighteen." Other hand on my back between my wings. "Back is eighteen."</p>
<p>"Your math is a little off."</p>
<p>"That's <em>my</em> line," she growls. Her hands drop. "The <em>other</em> one percent-" her fingers start walking along my leg, towards my hips- "belongs to..."</p>
<p>Then less than one percent of her body is in mine.</p>
<hr>
<p>We're lying on the floor, side-by-side. One of her arms is thrown over her eyes to block out the crack of sun spilling out from between the curtains. My childhood would have thought it a rare sight, bright sun in the middle of winter, but it's almost the end of December and we've had no persistent snow in Minnesota. No snow banks, no snowpeople, no snowball fights.</p>
<p>Without getting up, I feel along the floor for her free hand, grab it, start curling her fingers in and out as I count.</p>
<p>"Hmm?"</p>
<p>"Jett? When you take a number with at least two digits in it and add the digits together, and then you add nine, and then you add the digits of that answer together, you get the same thing as if you hadn't added nine in the first place."</p>
<p>She lifts her arm a bit, side-eyes me. "So this whole time I was thinking about us curling up under your mother's quilt, you were doing complex calculus in your head."</p>
<p>"Actually, I failed calculus in college."</p>
<p>"Yeah. I know. We coitus-ed the morning of your finals. And then you had an existental crisis, answered two questions on your final exam, and then booked it off campus as fast as your sprained knee would let you."</p>
<p>"And... there was a quilt from my mother hanging in that room, too."</p>
<p>"Very perceptive, Lethe." She wiggles her hand free from my grasp. "So thirty-five. Three plus five is... eight. Plus nine makes seventeen. Seven plus one makes... eight." Her brow furrows. "No, that has to be wrong. Sixty-five. Six plus five make eleven. One and one make two. Plus nine is... eleven again." She shakes her head. "I'm missing something. My angel number. One and one and one and four make seven. Plus nine is sixteen. One and six are- <em>dammit!</em>"</p>
<p>"Difficulties?"</p>
<p>"It doesn't feel like it should be true. But it is. You're going to drive me insane long before we ever get to Sablade."</p>
<p>"Speaking of that..." I pull myself up to my knees, loom over Jett, who is still counting digits on her fingers. "You told me to study Asatru a few years ago. And they really like the number nine. Like, <em>really</em> like nine. There are nine worlds. And we're in Midgard, right in the middle of everything. But that doesn't make any sense to me, Jett, because I <em>know</em> there are infinite worlds in the Outside." I touch my chest. "<em>I'm</em> one of them! So does everything I know, everything I've experienced, just neatly fit into Midgard because it's clearly nowhere else? I'm absolutely confounded. Explain this to me."</p>
<p>"I mostly just wanted you to study the runes." She pulls herself up to sitting. I straighten myself to give her room. "The map of the nine worlds isn't intended to be literal. Even if this one Inside was Midgard, where do you put the other planets? If life was licked out of the brine by Audhumla, then where did aliens come from? Do Huginn and Muninn put on space helmets to go visit the other planets to tell Odin what happens there? You'd think, with his desperate hunger for knowledge, he'd have more efficient methods. It's mythology, Lethe. It doesn't have to hold up to scrutiny. It's just a pretty story intended as a cultural baseline."</p>
<p>"I... wonder what myths the people of Sablade will write about us." A pause. "I hope that they write that we stay in love with each other forever."</p>
<p>Jett starts counting on her fingers again.</p>
<p>"Lethe, guess what else has the number nine?"</p>
<p>"What?"</p>
<p>"What important event happened in 2014?"</p>
<p>"I... discovered I like women? And I had my first relationship in this Inside? And my first breakup?"</p>
<p>She winces. <em>"And then what?</em> What other thing happened for the first time in this Inside?"</p>
<p class="blink1"><em>Your powers are perfectly matched here.</em></p>
<p class="blink2"><em>Your powers are... here.</em></p>

<blockquote>Summer is a joy to men, when God, the holy King of Heaven,<br>suffers the earth to bring forth shining fruits<br>for rich and poor alike.</blockquote>
<p>Norwegian rune poem:</p>
<blockquote>Ár er gumna góðe;<br>get ek at o,rr var Fróðe.</blockquote>
<blockquote>Plenty is a boon to men;<br>I say that Frothi was generous.</blockquote>
<p>A modern poem:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><strong>I plant scattered words<br/>
in the garden of my notebook</strong><br/>
and wait to see which will sprout<br/>
aboveground and take a look<br/>
at the sun<br/>
above.</p>
<p>Sometimes it takes years,<br/>
others only a day,<br/>
packaged into sorrowful poem<br/>
and then sent on its way.<br/>
The ones that linger in the soil<br/>
sometimes rot, having no soul<br/>
or otherwise missed its context,<br/>
last metro train heading home<br/>
now departing the station.</p>
<p><strong>You slowly opened up to me</strong><br/>
like a flower blooming,<br/>
yet inside nearly bursting<br/>
at the seams<br/>
to have someone to share a dream<br/>
with. Cross-section of a seed<br/>
that was about to germinate,<br/>
crumpled-up squiggle of green<br/>
sometimes with a tiny leaf<br/>
for soil lying in wait.<br/>
Some seeds can be frozen<br/>
almost indefinitely,<br/>
waiting in oblivion for a world<br/>
that will treat them far more kindly.<br/>
And you waited. You waited so long<br/>
for somebody like me<br/>
to help you remember how to breathe,<br/>
how to grow again.</p>
<p>My rewards in Sablade<br/>
will be far greater than any pain<br/>
that I must bear.<br/>
And when comes time to die,<br/>
I should be able to look you in the eyes<br/>
and let you carry me gently into that good night<br/>
and in our new home spill from my lips all the tales<br/>
with perfect memory of all that has transpired<br/>
since to kill Eris the first time you and I failed.</p>
<p>A book starts from just a single word,<br/>
and a life from a solitary breath,<br/>
and grows day by day until<br/>
I have a tome of praises and a gentle death.<br/>
It always feels like torture<br/>
in the moment of toil,<br/>
but at the end when all comes to fruition<br/>
I cannot help but bless the soil.</p>
<p>I was too ambitious,<br/>
too close to the sun.<br/>
We didn't get to see what the<br/>
seed would decide to become.<br/>
We didn't get to do<br/>
everything we wanted to<br/>
in just one lifetime.<br/>
Right now is an interlude.<br/>
And when we reunite<br/>
in Sablade, I'll give you<br/>
a part two<br/>
worthy of your love.</p>

while from death or mortal wound you do not waver</p>
<p>but <strong>I'd rather you chose to survive</strong>,<br/>
to not force me to say goodbye,<br/>
to slowly heal the impaled wound<br/>

<p>A modern poem:</p>

<p>All that you've done so far has led me to believe<br/>

That, no matter how dark and cold between you and I it gets,<br/>
the clouds will eventually break and the sun will shine again.</p>
<p><strong>But still I have no clue what the fates will us bestow</strong><br/>
when it gets longer between our touch and what words pass are cold<br/>
with disappointment, misunderstandings, or simply had a bad day<br/>
and, although still loving, cannot any measure of warmth feign.</p>
<p>Deep purple dice cup with thick frosting of dust<br/>
as though this were a bakery and Time held a brush<br/>
to sugar everything, last breath of a world that for me did not wait,<br/>
beckoning me to twist the lid and allow myself to play.</p>
<p><strong>"No people are more addicted to divination by omens and lots."</strong><br/>
My genes mark me no different. But the only words I ever sought<br/>
were from you, my lilac spring, and even then mostly<br/>
I just wanted to know if you still loved me.</p>
<p>My head in your lap as you lean against<br/>
a tree trunk, not Yewiffe but still offering rest.<br/>
Arboreal claws we lie intimate between,<br/>
scales ruffling above in the gentle breeze.</p>
<p>"I don't live in Wyrd, Lethe; I'm far from a Norn.<br/>
I can't see to which fate this world has you sworn.<br/>
But this, I feel, I insist you need to know:<br/>
my love for you will always burn no matter how buried by snow."</p>

<blockquote>
<p>I'm clinging to your waist<br/>
like you're a floating log<br/>
and I'm halfway to drowning<br/>
not knowing how to breathe with a non-human face.</p>
<p>Someone once called me <strong>the Rainbow Bridge,<br/>
being the crossing point between so many worlds</strong>,<br/>
but I am neither bi<br/>
nor could I ever abide<br/>
frost over the surface of this roiling sea<br/>
in this metaphor of mine.<br/>
I move too violent,<br/>
too constant,<br/>
for the whole thing to freeze<br/>
over, you see.</p>
<p>But I certainly feel like being quartered<br/>
face from hand from back from limb<br/>
trembling to keep my mind<br/>
in a bedroom lost and somehow dimmed.<br/>
Three different bloods rage inside<br/>
and two are battling for my skin<br/>
and your fingertips brushing the back of my neck,<br/>
the temples where bone and antler connect,<br/>
are the only reminder you're here to protect<br/>
me, <strong>promised by palm to keep me sane</strong><br/>
even if draconity ever overcame<br/>
me and my body forcibly changed<br/>
to that of a beast.</p>
<p>Do you think, if a stranger ever saw,<br/>
they'd mistake me for a particularly messed-up elk?<br/>
Wonder where my eyes went, or why so blunted my maw?<br/>
A creature too exquisite for this world, too peculiar for their ilk,<br/>
have to always stay on the periphery<br/>
or in long-lost bedrooms where nobody can see<br/>
the ribbons with every breath wavering.<br/>
You will with me stay<br/>
until you can see my normal face again<br/>
and in the meantime reassure that I'm safe.</p>

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

<blockquote>The sun is ever a joy in the hopes of seafarers<br>when they journey away over the fishes' bath,<br>until the courser of the deep bears them to land.</blockquote>
<p>Norwegian rune poem:</p>
<blockquote>Sól er landa ljóme;<br>lúti ek helgum dóme.</blockquote>
<blockquote>Sun is the light of the world;<br>I bow to the divine decree.</blockquote>
<p>A modern poem:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>What comes after<br/>
disaster?<br/>
What follows<br/>
the worst possible outcome?</p>
<p>The wind in its wealth carries your words:<br/>
<i>keep going, get a move on.</i></p>
<p>I was told <strong>the Eschaton<br/>
was but a cleansing that stretched out long</strong><br/>
to destroy all that prevented me<br/>
from accepting<br/>
my title as Solstice and my being as Lethe,<br/>
but I've achieved both<br/>
and all still grows worse<br/>
and I know not how much longer I can drag<br/>
this body of mine writing verses in red<br/>
before I end up lifeless, drained, inert<br/>
in the back of a hearse.</p>
<p>You said we were palm pals, that you'd spend your life<br/>
keeping me non-feral, safe, happy at your side.<br/>
But my hand<br/>
stands<br/>
empty, cold, bleeding out<br/>
and held up to the sky to catch the sun before in clouds<br/>
it drowns.</p>
<p>How much longer to go? How much more time to wait<br/>
until the tragedy leaves me and the sorrow abates?<br/>
You promised I'd be dead by May,<br/>
assured me in the dead of night<br/>
as from anxiety I could not stifle a weep.<br/>
And I know it's not your fault<br/>
it was a promise you could not keep.<br/>
Not all in the future you can see clearly enough to tell<br/>
and even if plans are made, ever-shifting is the Veil.</p>
<p>Blanketed by thunder at four forty-four,<br/>
arm around my waist to hold me secure.<br/>
The moon reflects the rays of the sun,<br/>
but it cannot do so all of the time.<br/>
So when plumbs on the dark, my love,<br/>
grant me the light to survive.</p>

<p>Raised on tales of heroes from the sky,<br/>
but the days pass on rapidly by<br/>
and my rights disappear<br/>
into the ether<br/>
as curled up in my bed I wait to die.</p>
<p>Conflicting directives you have bestowed,<br/>
to not lie to myself<br/>
and yet take care of this vessel.<br/>
For so long I've been trying to vindicate<br/>
who I was this age minus eight,<br/>
angel number, all portals<br/>
to the outside world<br/>
for the crime of poetry taken away.<br/>
<strong>Keeping my mouth shut means safety<br/>
but heavy conscience, soul decay.</strong><br/>
I might as well be no one at all.</p>

<p>"I've always found it strange<br/>
that, in hypotheticals<br/>
of <strong>you losing control and going feral</strong>,<br/>
you always imagine your draconic form.<br/>
Not the one, the chaotic, proven to,<br/>
when lost control, cause massive harm.<br/>
What's up with that, Lethe?<br/>
I mean,<br/>
I'm not saying I want either to happen,<br/>
but you're so focused on one<br/>
that you discount the other's chances."</p>
<p>I... I don't know, in all honesty.<br/>
I have no concrete answers to give,<br/>
no easy explanation that will relieve.</p>
<p>I guess because...<br/>
in the former form I'm slender and elegant,<br/>
and maybe I associate it with intelligence,<br/>
and so I'm more likely to retain<br/>
some semblance of myself amidst the insane?</p>
<p>Because part of the fantasy<br/>
is you managing to rescue me?</p>
<p>I know you said<br/>
you wanted to spend<br/>
your whole life at my side,<br/>
but I don't want you here if to you<br/>
this is just another sacrifice,<br/>
if you're throwing away your happiness<br/>
just to keep the worlds in safety and bliss-</p>
<p>"That's... not what I meant at all.<br/>
I just want us to be prepared<br/>
in case you ever come under the thrall<br/>
of another evil-seeking god.<br/>
You <i>eat</i> gods, you know. Are you aware?<br/>
With your tail you reave whole worlds to shreds<br/>
and suck souls dry until there's nothing left.<br/>
If you must be in the hands of someone,<br/>
let those hands be mine,<br/>
who has loved you since what feels like<br/>
the beginning of time<br/>
itself.<br/>
You trust me, don't you?<br/>
To not put you through hell?"</p>
<p>Of course. I trust you with all that I am<br/>
even after my very last death knell.<br/>
I think, if I should ever go feral,<br/>
it should be in the form that forgets the least<br/>
so you can bring me back to sanity<br/>
with the utmost of ease.<br/>
After all, I think I'd like to remain<br/>
an (arch)angel for the rest of my days<br/>
since only then do I have the hands,<br/>
the face, the voice to say:</p>
<p>"I love you."</p>

<p>Because I must ask you, dear friend,<br/>
to return to the Inside<br/>
because there is a task for you yet.</p>
<p>This swampy murky place<br/>
has done a number on your psyche.<br/>
I know that you carried some guilt<br/>
at Rainroom's last painful parting,<br/>
but here it's turned up to twenty-eight.<br/>
<strong>I don't for the life of me understand<br/>
why you agonize<br/>
over something that happened in fourth grade</strong><br/>
or why you feel things would have turned out better<br/>
had you to certain individuals been able to say goodbye.<br/>
Isn't this what you wanted, Lethe?<br/>
To disappear from their gaze<br/>
without a trace?</p>
<p>This guilt is a rock in your hands.<br/>
Hold it, feel its heft,<br/>
every jagged edge.<br/>
You carry this around everywhere.<br/>
For what purposes? To what end?<br/>
A bludgeon to hold at arm's<br/>
length<br/>
to try to ensure you can't ever be harmed<br/>
again?</p>
<p>There is nothing that can be done<br/>
for most of these,<br/>
and for those that can, attempts to appease<br/>
would just reopen old wounds and make matters worse.<br/>
Please,<br/>
Lethe,<br/>
just accept that<br/>
some people will dislike you no matter what.</p>
<p>And some people love you despite all that you've done.</p>
<p>Some know your entire herstory,<br/>
even the parts they themselves did not see,<br/>
and choose to love you anyway.</p>
<p>If they can do so knowing no motives,<br/>
then I see no reason you must<br/>
with the heavy weight of guilt live.</p>
<p>You can set<br/>
the rock<br/>
down. You can shed<br/>
the burden.<br/>
This paradox<br/>
of a task:<br/>
to not act,<br/>
to not harm<br/>
yourself any longer.</p>
<p>And so I too must set you down<br/>
back into your body on the bloodstrewn ground,<br/>
alive and healed and undead.<br/>
I'll keep my promise eventually, I swear;<br/>
the end is within sight.<br/>
I just need you<br/>
to do<br/>
this one thing<br/>
before your vessel will let itself die.</p>

Nothing much to do, except myself drag<br/>
out of bed long enough to write.</p>
<p>The day drags on me like a wet blanket<br/>
and I fail to see how this is "restoration"<br/>
to be so beat upon<br/>
by an uncaring sun.<br/>
<strong>I can only see my wife<br/>
when falls upon the earth the covering of night<br/>
or when the bedroom window blinds are drawn<br/>
and I spend whole afternoons in Morpheus' song.</strong></p>
<p>I heard in a half-whispered voice<br/>
that the glittering myth<br/>
would once again come to live<br/>
and that I should rejoice.<br/>
But what if things go wrong?<br/>
What if the details come out mangled?<br/>
Dagaz on its side, hourglass,<br/>
seconds turning to hours and days that will pass,<br/>
recounting to myself<br/>
every time you have held<br/>
me in your arms.</p>
<p>I know not what I'll do if something is changed<br/>
in that world I have only ever caught a glimpse<br/>
of, have explored only a fraction in my dreams.<br/>
How will I recount<br/>
the foresting bomb that became a Town,<br/>
the winterous snowed-in cave<br/>
where you abandoned me and then came<br/>
back demanding answers, the Rainroom<br/>
with part-exchange of souls and my doom?<br/>
What is a miracle to others is my apocalypse.</p>
<p>What is the answer<br/>
to so many prayers,<br/>
mine in the past included,<br/>
is now a lifetime perdition's portent.</p>

<blockquote>An estate is very dear to every man,<br>if he can enjoy there in his house<br>whatever is right and proper in constant prosperity.</blockquote>
<p>There is not a Norwegian rune poem for Othala.</p>
<p>A modern poem:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>I fear I am being driven mad<br/>
by forces I do not understand,<br/>
have no hopes of coming to terms with,<br/>
much less explaining to kin and kith<br/>
this world that I belong to,<br/>
these spirits I must be in league with.</p>
<p>For <strong>this is<br/>
the inheritance<br/>
of my blood,<br/>
this homeland I carry everywhere I go<br/>
and cannot ever hope to escape from.</strong><br/>
These three errant and conflicting strains<br/>
each with its own legitimate claim<br/>
over my body, my heart, my soul.</p>
<p>There's a fourth that dormant within me resides,<br/>
but it hasn't reared its head in a very long time.<br/>
Neither do I miss it, no blessing it could give<br/>
but instead the curse of a biological imperative<br/>
that I would sooner from me excise.</p>
<p>Unlike my siblings of lives long gone by,<br/>
I do not accept that it is my duty<br/>
to create a world and in the process die.<br/>
What is the point, if at the end,<br/>
I am not still living?<br/>
What is the point of fulfilling it when,<br/>
if I perished in the process, you could never be happy?</p>
<p>If one of them could awake from oblivion<br/>
and on this gnarly life of mine pass judgment,<br/>
what would they say?</p>
<p>"How well you retained a sense of individuality.<br/>
Tell me, Lethe, would you consider yourself among the happy?<br/>
Was it worth the sleepless nights, the gut twists, the migraines,<br/>
all to your duty as a Meridian abdicate?"</p>
<p>And to that, I would take my lover's hand<br/>
and whisper, "Yes, I think the aches<br/>
in my bones will be worth the wait.<br/>
Maybe you never knew this, sibling.<br/>
Maybe you never understood<br/>
homes don't have to be built by sacrifice<br/>
and <i>I don't think they should.</i><br/>
I don't know what gave birth to me<br/>
or if of life they'd still think me worthy,<br/>
but I care not. My lover<br/>
is the only standard<br/>
I recognize,<br/>
and this new world built by these<br/>
hands of mine<br/>
the only homeland."</p>

<p>A modern poem:</p>
<blockquote>
<p><strong>Death and loss are a part of life.<br/>
For one thing to live, another must die</strong>,<br/>
or maybe a great many things,<br/>
the blood on my hands accumulating over time.</p>
<p>When our bodies have decayed<br/>
and the earth has our flesh reclaimed,<br/>
it will for archeologists be hard<br/>
to tell our skeletons apart.<br/>
And that is if they can even plumb Yewiffe,<br/>
can descend down the roots of that massive tree<br/>
where tangled and intertwined lies<br/>
the forgotten, the repressed, the passed parts of my life.</p>
<p>Maybe one of them will find<br/>
a moment that has yet to happen<br/>
where my parents finally of my wretched blood ken<br/>
and toss me out onto the streets.<br/>
This is, of course, if they do not deem<br/>
me a demon, a thief,<br/>
a persistent adept-at-lying possessor<br/>
of what they all this time called their daughter<br/>
and grant me at their own hands a slaughter.</p>
<p>For this to come to pass I know is certain,<br/>
for even the best of my secrets I could not hide forever.<br/>
In Ragnarok even the gods from their lives were severed.<br/>
<strong>It mattered not<br/>
how mightily anyone fought:<br/>
for all ill-fated was drawn life's curtain.</p>
<p>All that anyone could control<br/>
was how they reacted to it,<br/>
how the coming end they greeted.</strong></p>
<p>And the coming end I seek,<br/>
if this is the fate I am doomed to keep,<br/>
is that this time<br/>
for once in my life<br/>
I do not from my beliefs<br/>
back down.<br/>
Instead of snapping in the hurricane,<br/>
I rest on these roots dug so deep<br/>
and refuse to recant my name.</p>
<p>And when I die,<br/>
I will be able to look you in the eyes<br/>
with no burning guilt and no unsettled regrets.<br/>
I will have proved to you my loyalty<br/>
and you to me your promise<br/>
to never leave me behind.<br/>
Now take me to Sablade, set us free.<br/>
We have earned our three days of rest.</p>

<blockquote>
<p>English classes have always been to me<br/>
a sort of Sword of Damocles.<br/>
I do what I will, but will it be enough<br/>
to be accepted, or just deemed crude and rough?</p>
<p><strong>I cannot help the way I write,<br/>
self-taught and shut away from the light</strong><br/>
and having to seek it in the cracks in the walls,<br/>
not big enough for detection but for thriving too small.</p>
<p>And even though the school doors to me are closed<br/>
and in most days<br/>
I do not hang<br/>
in my father's rage's woes,<br/>
it does not change that my artistic growth<br/>
has been forever marred, twisted, contorted<br/>
into an off-putting and alien shape.</p>
<p>This aberration<br/>
is all that I am.<br/>
This demonic growth<br/>
is my only hope<br/>
for surviving in this world of men.</p>
<p>For this world offers no true salvation<br/>
for a woman such as myself.<br/>
Quiet my heart and keep my mouth shut,<br/>
or be locked away in the guise of "mental help":<br/>
what kind of a choice is this?<br/>
Men will see a woman contorting<br/>
to ease the pain of their inflicted torture<br/>
and deem her "insane", "hysterical", "untrustful"<br/>
as an excuse to lock her<br/>
away.</p>
<p>I want to scream into the heavens<br/>
until my throat is raw.<br/>
I want to tear into a man's throat<br/>
and chew,<br/>
brutally gnaw,<br/>
off the sinews<br/>
connecting skull to maw.<br/>
Now you're the voiceless one,<br/>
mutilated and mute.<br/>
Nothing of value was lost.</p>
<p>Maybe I am a lost cause,<br/>
but only to being complicit<br/>
in my own desecration.</p>
<p>Laser focus,<br/>
beast's tunnel vision.<br/>
What say man's heavens<br/>
to a woman who will not be silenced?<br/>
Only a god's hand can strike me down<br/>
now.<br/>
And if he is real, why haven't<br/>
I been smote yet?</p>

can be used to build a house.</p>

with you on that mountainside.<br/>
I've spent enough shivering time<br/>
in lean-tos made of cured beast hide,<br/>
exposed to the elements.<br/>
I want somewhere safe and warm<br/>

Pull your claws out of your chest<br/>

Your grasp<br/>
whether through Veil or ceiling of glass<br/>

let it be this, I plead, I beseech.</p>

<h1>Gar</h1>
<p>Traditional meaning: Odin's spear</p>
<p>Meanings when upright:</p>
<ul>
<li>stop asking</li>
<li>you're not supposed to know</li>
<li>wait and watch</li>
<li>you must go forward on faith alone</li>
</ul>
<p>Meanings when inverted:</p>
<ul>
<li>you need to know</li>
</ul>
<hr>
<p>There is not a known Norwegian or Anglo-Saxon rune poem for Gar.</p>
<p>A modern poem:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>There used to be "forbidden questions"<br/>
you would only answer with hesitation,<br/>
would sometimes answer "no"<br/>
just to throw<br/>
a wrench in my anxiety's gears.</p>
<p>Although<br/>
I guess by now I should know<br/>
that if you've loved me all these years,<br/>
there's no reason you would stop now.<br/>
Not after everything I've ever done<br/>
or the atrocities I have yet to commit:<br/>
your life is mine, you insist;<br/>
I'm the only one you want to spend it with.</p>
<p>I guess by now<br/>
you've figured out<br/>
that nervousness is my base nature,<br/>
that while consciously I know,<br/>
it hasn't pierced through all my layers.<br/>
Hasn't come to reside<br/>
in my left lung, straining for air,<br/>
strung up with rope and left to die.</p>
<p>It's said that Odin sacrificed<br/>
himself to himself in this way,<br/>
knowledge the thing that he sought.<br/>
An alphabet to answer magic,<br/>
guard rails for creative thought.</p>
<p>Just as fated is Nidhogg<br/>
to the roots of Yggdrasil forever gnaw,<br/>
so I too lurk the underground of Yewiffe,<br/>
stuck going in circles, unable to leave.<br/>
This last rune standing at the end of time,<br/>
a doorway out<br/>
crossed out<br/>
with two opposing lines.<br/>
There's something in my past<br/>
for which I am wracked with longing,<br/>
but I can't find it<br/>
and neither do I know what it is<br/>
and going down is this ship<br/>
and the blood<br/>
in my lungs<br/>
is pooling<br/>
where the spear<br/>
has pierced<br/>
my side<br/>
and in my own sorrow sans escape I am drowning.</p>
<p>"I thought I told you-<br/>
<i>I thought you knew</i>-<br/>
that I'd never leave you behind."</p>
</blockquote>
