BEWILDERED LIKE YOU

Odin had over 200 names,

I wonder about myth,

God does not seem a person,

just a name,

but as a story, I am so moved,

Myths are the world's first friction writing technically,

more than fiction, Friction is a sort of method acting, never breaking character, sustained in effort to bridge the imagination to the actual. Friction is a thing we sustained because it serves and served a purpose.

How great a vision is it to subvert the ages beneath the icy governance,

of that place between the stars.

In a constellation of wonder,

I fall between utterance and salience,

Just like you Odin,

Bewildered like you.
