"Odin's kin"
saying was hard · saying to keep, harder
it had to be true · trained on a stone
thirty stern generations · & we're still finding
those letters scratched · then inked in
red pigment · or real blood
the thought of it · ogles the thin mind
of a misfit furious · to feel skin-powerful
but these rune wielders · woned before "race"—
winter & the sea · & dire war
were the real powers · in wolf-puissance
& if you could hack it · survive hungers
of the deepest kind · you were Odin's kin
Lights are shining looking north from Beaver!

In fact, the stones have even been described as the social media of the Viking Age.
