Invisible Strangers


Afraid of showing who we really are,
We turn to those unknown.
Allowing our true colors to shine through the fog,
We tell the secrets hidden below.

Those unknown can not hurt us with rumor,
Or stab us in the back with shame.
To feel secure we must be released,
But only unknown strangers may permit.

Neither family nor friend may be trusted.
Not wishing to let them down.
The pain of being known is dreaded.
The pain of being unknown is worse.

The Rune of St. Patrick.
"The Faedh Fiada"; or,
"The Cry of the Deer."

"At Tara to-day in this fateful hour,
I place all Heaven with its power,
And the sun with its brightness,
And the snow with its whiteness,
And the fire with all the strength it hath,
And the lightning with its rapid wrath,
And the winds with their swiftness along their path,
And the sea with its deepness,
And the rocks with their steepness,
And the earth with its starkness,
All these I place,
By God's almighty help and grace,
Between myself and the powers of darkness."
