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.

LOOKING 

Just there 
in the grass,

a fallen leaf. Rust 
against green

baking 
in the sun.

But then 
the autumn edges

 taunt me 
into seeing 

something
that is not tree.

The trace of a face.
Something animal.

The minute I see it 
the leaf is gone. 

All that remains 
is the wink

and the ears 
at attention. 

The fox is now 
the one looking.
