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.

IMMACULATE CONCEPTION AT THE CORNER LAUDROMAT

an ancient
head to toe
in white

had she not
been overwhelmed
by her work

—a mountain
of sheets she was
feverishly folding—

I would have sworn
she was the color
white incarnate

busy
conceiving itself
through creases
