Ygg

Mirror image
Above, below
Timeless vintage
None can know

Infinite roots casting wide
Among them Norns will fates decide

For nine whole days hung Wodin there
Pierced by spear the roots ensnare

Limbs outstretched like crackled glass
Knowing all those who've come before
Engraved with what has come to pass
And echoed deeds of Asator

Among splayed branches stand races all
Etins, Gods, and Humans hall.
