The Tragedy of Thor’s Oak

Poetry
St Boniface felling Donar’s Oak, sacred to the pagan Germans.
Source: unknown.

 Sacrilege, 
 sacred-space,
 soul-sanctum,
 struck down.

 A holy, 
 hallowed
 wood, cut
 before holy Gods. 

 Revenge
 was swift,
 but debt
 not paid.
 
 Few Folk should
 find forgiveness
 for foul assaults, 
 fiends to our folkway. 

 Midgard's
 middle-man
 to many 
 mysteries 

 Tarnished by
 treasonous 
 traitors to 
 the Thunderer

 Curse the 
 coward called
 Boniface, certainly
 Nástrǫnd calls.
