God of Wisdom, Master rune carver. Thrust Your divine blade, Deep within my writhing being. Fill me with Your seed of knowing. Share with me Your fury. Whet Your appetite with my every cry. Take Your fill of my body and mind. Leave me begging for more, Yet give nothing more than what You will. So, take me for all I am. As I belong only to You.

Prayer to Odin
You can find a gender neutral, causal version of this prayer here.
To You, I hail, my God of Wisdom and of Madness. I have seen You as a friend and confidant. I have learnt from You, as both a father and mentor. I have felt You as both a lover and partner. All that I ask of You, is that You hear my prayer. A prayer for courage and fortitude. A prayer for wisdom and inspiration. Your presence is one of euphoria. Please, I ask that You penetrate me, with Your mighty ever-ready spear. Fill me with Your ecstasy, Your passion. Letting it flow forth and drive me mad. I submit myself to You, as a willing sacrifice. I have accepted Your brand with pride. With the pride of a fierce warrior. With the love of a devoted wife. I will submit to Your granted maddening inspiration, letting it run wild and untamed. I will wield its force like a mighty hammer and use it to tear down all that impede my path. Leaving nothing standing in my wake. To You, I hail, All-Father
