mythological religions

Mythical Religions

When the king’s son died,
Not by the sword but by physical humiliation,
Every living being cried
A sea so clear one could not know
If it was one foot or one hundred feet deep
Many drowned.
A sea to set sail on,
A calm mirror of knowledge,
And dock in Asgard’s natural harbour,
But if you have to fight your way there,
Valhalla is a better place for you.
