Zeus, Thor and Freyr
...the gods having a happy hour with cosmic ambrosia and nectar...
Zeus, Thor and Freyr
I don’t mind
That Zeus is losing his cool
Hurling lightning bolts
Here, there and nowhere
Crashing sounds and flashes everywhere...
I’m not worried
That Thor is losing his cool
Pounding his hammer
Without pause getting stronger
Deafening rumbling booming
everywhere...
As long as
In the end the heavens rupture
Zeus and Freyr together
Pouring sheets drenching the earth
Quenching slaking the thirst
everywhere...
Cooling updrafts and downdrafts follow
Breathe in the cooling oxygen
Sense the relief from the stifling heat
Heat waves literally vaporizing
Zeus, Thor and Freyr are good for something after all
