Tyr

Lord of Swords

For Tyr

by Bill

Tyr 30Master of sword's point

And javelin's sting
Heart of iron
Stalwart king
A broken promise
Honor berfeft in duty honored
Wolf friend and betrayer
The sacrifice of a sword-hand
And crown
The sacrifice of all he was and could be
For the many, for the future dear
Lost now in the mists of ignonimy
Spirit unbroken, head unbowed
Fallen battle-king without peer.
