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.

THE FONTANELLE,

it is said,         
is the way
back into       
the body
if we ever        
leave it,
and have        
the fear:
how do I          
return?

Ironic,
that re-entry,
after an out-of-body
or near-death experience,
would be through
the same
“soft spot”
that never
completely closed,
after we made
that first passage
from womb
to delivery room.

A good reminder:
remain malleable.
Never harden.
Always stay open.

Remember that and
we will surely be
fountainheads
to ourselves, again.
