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.

ADAM’S APPLE

A new ridge
just there,

course
as rope.

A lid or lip
dozing, mute.

Numbness stitched
into chakra.

Oracle blind
to prophesy.

Scar that recalls
its surgery

with every sudden
swallow—

and the taboo
fruit,

its blight
and the bite taken.
