All Things Norse
ALL THINGS NORSE
These are the guys in horn-helmets of course,
And the biggest hammer was always Thor’s.
They traveled each European watercourse
From the mouth to the source,
And their transport was boat - never by horse.
They were preoccupied with trade as a resource
And with local women had lots of intercourse.
Regardless of singularity, marriage or divorce.
Their own huts were simply made from gorse
But they destroyed better villages with no remorse:
They did everything by force.
Their language was often coarse,
Usually yelling themselves hoarse.
But relatively little is known of their discourse
For their code was always morse.
