The Norse Men we know as Vikings were known for their ferocity and aggression, yet at the core of the warrior is a longing for love. After the Viking war generations ceased to raid, their ancestors carried forth that longing and came to settle the new world. Some laid down the ax and took up ink and quill. Disgruntled with the expectations placed upon him for being named after the Norse God of Poetry, Bragi Kennings, son of a fisherman from Duluth, Minnesota, travels the West with his friend Rig Vindler seeking inspiration for his poems. After a stroke of hard times, the two friends take refuge deep within the Olympic Mountains where Bragi dwells upon the memory of a long-departed lover, I unn, an up and coming musician named after the Norse Goddess of Eternal Youth. On a dare from an outcast witch of the deep woods, Bragi, Vindler, and their companion chicken, Kyuklingur, make a pilgrimage to Seattle where Bragi is propelled into a love quadrangle that forces him to confront a transformative reconciliation with his past. When I unn reappears, Bragi must assimilate a reality that doesn't match the fantasy he has weaved in his poetry, and redefine himself as a poet, lover, and man. Poet for Hire examines the friction of becoming one's truest self with the pursuit of Art, Love, and Dreams.
