Ode to Odhinn
(© 2006 Wodhskadh Helblindi)

I am the Visionary
And you never even noticed
Through anarchy in all known senses
And all the time I practiced

I am the Explorer
And all the time you knew
Of the mystic and the dark unknown
from bright the sun to deepest blue

I am the Searcher
and you never even saw
The love the hate and suffering
The bloodied steel claw

I am the Seeker
Yet how could you not know
The madness, sadness, joy and death
And all the time you in me did grow.

I am the Preserver
Yet how could you never see?
Exhausting within all the poisons
Merely their quintessences left in me

I am the Pain Bearer
But will you ever be able to find?
Unspeakable torment, agony and fear
The conflict of emotions, heart and mind

I am the Supreme Scientist
For I attain the unknown
Experiments in mind, feelings and reaction
And finally suffering on my own.

And then when the day is done
And inside again I've died
Again return t'where I belong
'cause with You there's nothing to hide

*** *** ***

And all was to be the cream
And all was to know life's goal
And all was to seek the seam
But with you, All seemed like nothing at all...
