 I've been fascinated/obsessed by Germanic/Nordic culture and religion for some time now, so this summer I finally decided I should read the Edda. Was a great collection of poems Especially Hárbarđsljóđ, often had to LOL while reading it When I was in the bookstore buying the Edda, I spotted a copy of the Kalevala as well. Great epic poem which I can really recommend. Much more so an epic than the Poetic Edda, because whereas the Edda is a collection of often unrelated poems, the Kalevala tells one story.

When I'm in a drunken mood
I cheer, dance and sing. When I'm in a sober mood I worry, grumble and think But when my moods are over and my time has come to pass, I hopa I'm burried upside down, so the world can kiss my ass |

A little blue bird with a yellow bill,
landed on my window sill. I lured him in with a crust of bread, then I crushed his little head. |

Yesterday upon the stair
I saw a man who wasn't there. He wasn't there again today. I think he's with the CIA. The boy stood on the burning deck Eating peanuts by the peck. His father called, he would not go Because he loved those peanuts so. Fuzzy Wuzzy was a bear, A bear was Fuzzy Wuzzy. When Fuzzy Wuzzy lost his 'air He wasn't Fuzzy, was 'e? |
