Array ( [sid] => 47508 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Do You Wear your Hammer? [time] => 2004-05-14 14:08:02 [hometext] => This was written during the time i was exploring alternate religions, i settled on Norse for a long time. Hail Odin. [bodytext] => *******
Do you wear your Hammer
Around your neck each day?
Does it say 'I'm Asatru!'
Or is it tucked away?
Does your speech do credit
To Asatruar kind?
Or do your friends have cause to doubt
Your cleanliness of mind?
Will you answer truly
When asked your state of faith?
Do you, in face of Christendom
Vanish like a wraith?
Do you search for knowledge
And credit Odin's aid?
Do you show Frigg's charity
and love that will not fade?
Have you defended clan and kin
Against the sland'rer's edge?
Or have you, by your nod,
Helped to drive the wedge?
Are you fost'ring hatred
In breast that should be clean?
Are you worthy of the task
Or are your motives mean?
What you do today, my friend,
Is how you shall be known.
And by inf'rence, all of us
By your actions, shown!
And thus do Asatruar folk
All, each other represent!
In thought, and word and action.
In garb and temperament.
And we all represent the Gods
For from Them, we descend!
Remember that fact daily!
My Asatruar friend!
Do you wear your Hammer
For Asatruar Kind?
You must wear it on your clothing
And wear it on your mind [comments] => 2 [counter] => 179 [topic] => 11 [informant] => NirvanaLotus [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => ChristianPoetry )

Do you know who wrote that? That's been around for a long time.
