When Norsemen heard thunder,
did they seriously believe
Thor was hammering?

No, I’d say: I’d swear
that men have always lounged in myths
as Tall Stories,

that their real earnest
has been to grant excuses
for ritual actions.

Only in rites
can we renounce our oddities
and be truly entired.

Céilidh

awainwright:

a traditional Gaelic social gathering where singing, dancing, and storytelling are the main forms of entertainment. (also my cat’s name and one of the best experiences of my life)

Dance instructions for the next time you’re in Cape Breton, Ireland, or Scotland.
