sloughing skin
to begin

by threads
crimson & lean

bright winter sun

in the dull liquid mirror
balance waiting
under a darkened moon

old spirits' homecoming
a spark before fire
a hearth, cold ash

three runes: ᛚ ᛟ ᛇ

hawk turns to climb
cliffside thermals
she drifts on wing away

ephemeral, farewell to
days gone by

antler headdress donned
before crossing
rustic thresholds

under soil, under stone

symbolisms
ᛚ laguz
ᛟ othala
ᛇ eihwaz

over patchwork lands
eyes pierce all nine realms

ripping at buckthorn tangled
bindings fall away
untethered

a hawk screeches
crow awakes
