Publisher's Synopsis
The Songs is made up of 27 poems, or songs, that draw on traditional runic or arcane influences, such as The Havamal of Odin, Beowulf, Nietzsche and Alistair Crowley. Each of the songs is 9 lines long, and each line contains 9 syllables. This creates a deliberate rhythm as well as a magickal form. 9 is a sacred Norse number. This book is the companion to the author's first rune-poem book, Three Paths Through Midgard, although it is complete in itself. Rune Gild members, Asatru and Odinic readers, people interested in magic, magick, pagan pathways and traditional old English poetry will all find this book interesting, enlightening and contemplative.
