Von der Menschen Verdorbenheit

Glyptotek (DK)

Der Unweise wähnt wohlgesonnen sich
Alle, die ihn anlächeln
Wohl weiß er nicht
Das sie üble Nachrede üben
Wenn er den Rücken ihnen zuwendet
Was einer nur weiß
Bleibt verborgen
Wissen's dreie aber, weiß es das Dorf
Windzeit, Wolfzeit, Wehzeit
Masken fallen, Fesseln fallen
Bruder wendet Waffe und Wort gegen Bruder
Das stille Auge des Sturmes
Ist Heervaters Heimat
Wenn der Wütende die Welt zerweht


(Ofnir)

A winter's dream

Oslo (NO)

While demons roam in my territory

I'mgone and happy about it

While demons molest my kin

I'm gone and leave footprints in the northern snow

While demons remain in everlasting torture

I'm gone and enjoy the wintersun

Ice is not to be trusted in winter's beginning

So is the woman's mind after many years

A blade is not to be trusted before the battle is won

So a man shall trust his own power and spirit only

Ice is the sickness of snakes

Sunbeams pierce the heart of the Snowqueen

Triumph follows the Unjust

Who loves others like himself

Deception is retribution for lies

Ignorance the most devastating weapon

The eagle does not fear the snake

Hate is the king of the worms

It feeds from your entrails
Your arch enemy the best teacher

(Ofnir)

Nachtgetier

Some sleep in the night, others during the day
Some are always awake and others remain constantly sleeping
Nightwalkers in camouflaged wings
Hide their beauty in darkness
Your eyes are close when theirs open up
Carry dreams on their wings
The dark minds of the sleepless
Anger of the restless
Bring them to open ears
To glowing eyes in the dephts of the night
The north star will watch your demise
Unmoved

...of fire and ice...(Gullfoss, IS)

Pain...

Trepanated skull, Copenhagen National Museum.
Trepanning is surprisingly enough one of the oldest surgical performances we have archaeological evidence of. The depicted skull is from the stone age and the soft, healed edges of the hole indicate that the person subjected to the surgery survived the operation.
Trepanning is performed (still today) as a treatment for subdural haematoma, wich appears quite often after a blunt weapon hit the head.

Satan

If you are ever in search for Mr. Satan, you will find him surprisingly in or at the churches...
