Tiw, Tiw, Tiw: A Triple Invocation of Tyr for the 2019 Global Climate Strike

...Now is the only moment left to us.
Let there be courage enough in it.
When the wolf’s teeth bite down,
crushing vein and bone,
may we sacrifice knowing that
we are more whole without a hand
than we are without the world.
Ragnarok comes, and your voice rumbles
low and even across the Planck length.
I am behind you, listening from the rank and file.
My pen is on the page,
and I am ready.

Greetings! I'm Dr. Ceallaigh S. MacCath-Moran. I hold B.A. in Celtic Studies from the University of Toronto, an M.A. in English and Creative Writing from the University of Maine, and a PhD in Folklore from Memorial University of Newfoundland and Labrador. I'm also an author, poet, and musician under the name C.S. MacCath. My long-running Folklore & Fiction project integrates these passions with a focus on folklore scholarship aimed at storytellers, and I bring a deep appreciation of animism, ecology, and folkloristics to my own storytelling.
