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 ACCORDION 

It expands and contracts, 
heaves and moans

no matter 
who the player is. 

While the melody 
might be different 

from squeezebox 
to squeezebox 

the strain’s the same, 
the story’s the same: 

a pain bellows 
beneath breathing.
