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.

PLACEBO

Encapsulate it
any way you can.

Call it what you like.
The casing doesn’t matter.

If it enlightens and enlivens,
ignites a fire inside,

and connects you
to something greater,

and mixes well
with your own chemistry,

then take it.
Pen your own

prescriptions
as often as possible.

Become your own
pharmacologist,

your own
goddamn dispensary!

Be the patient and
practitioner at once.
