Thor, the Norse God of Thunder, had a hammer named Mjölnir. Mjölnir was considered a fierce weapon that could level mountains and summon lightning with every blow. In this poetry blog, every Thursday, (Thor’s Day), Mjölnir will forge only song - sing of the mysteries and beauties of the world.

THE GUTTER

is the inside
margin,

the space
between pages.

It’s what’s needed
so a book

can have
its binding.

Don’t we need
space like that—

a beat, a breath—
between

experiences
so balance

becomes
our stitchery

and our folios are
enlivening reads

that keeps us
turning pages?
