Jungle Feet.

"Within the thirty-fourth year
    from the Stille-night
since wolf-watcher’s rollick
    and blithe introit"

--The Anathemata

Blue City.

"Don´t know much about history,
Don´t know much archaeology,
Don´t know much about the Edda book,
Don´t remember which runes I took,
But I do know I´m Asatru,
And I know that if you too are trú,
What a wonderful world this would be.

Don´t know much etymology,
To me Old Norse is a mystery,
Don´t know how to do seidh for you,
Don't know how to make mead and brew,
But I do know I´m Asatru,
And I know that if you too are trú,
What a wonderful world this would be."

--Diana Paxson

"Because alliterative verse is defunct, and because poets writing in English at this time did not author treatises describing their metrical and aesthetic designs, the alliterative tradition is mysterious."
