Haunting Hel
A Scourge in Chains
Her Haunting Name
Falls Silent Across the Land
For Hel is She
Justice will Flee
As the Dead Lay in Her Hand
She Brought War
Against the Gods
Where the Soul of Balder Lie
With Sword, Spear, and
Pentagram Near
She Still Refused to Die
Strong Willed Courage
Destruction’s Age
Land of Helheim Found Below
Hel Leaves to Fate
Criminal Hate
So Self Discipline May Grow
Steel in Her Eyes
Nettles in Hair
Shifting into Wolf, Horse, and Bear
Meditation
Spiritual Lair
Is Trapped Inside the Serpent’s Snare
So,
When Seeking Stability In Life,
Avoiding Harm and Mental Strife,
Let Not Hel’s Fury Haunt the Night.
