The Cunning Verses

  1. Through nature, culture, time and place
    Exists the gods for us to truly pray.
    They come to us alone in hallowed grace;
    It matters not what others do or say.
  2. As months and seasons pass upon the earth –
    To every god whose might we surely praise –
    Beneath the sun and moon our pleas have worth
    Without the need for formal feasts or days.
  3. As spells for some or rites with hymns to sing,
    Distinctions such as these are made in err.
    Upon our altars every word or thing
    Exists to give to gods the will we bear.
  4. Through names their known in every text and tongue;
    The honored names the gods provide and show
    To us are simply those we grasp. Among
    Their names are those that only spirits know.
