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.

AVOWAL

Dear reader, without you,
this poem is a lonely thing,
like a consonant without its vowel.

You are the scribe
who adds the missing intonation,
accents the scripture,
so it can be a cantillation,
so it can sing and be sung.
