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.

RELAY RACE

People hand us batons
all the time.

We don’t have to 
take them.

We get to choose
which ones to

grab on to, where to put 
our energy,

what relay we are in
what races we will run.

We even hand 
ourselves batons. 

 These are 
the greater temptations

we face. The hardest
batons not to take.
