Night-Side
by Benjamin Braus, M3
Once upon a time
Frog skin was known
As the material of the moon
A luminous totem
Of resurrection and decay
And perhaps today
Under misfortune's penumbra
That incandescent stroma
Still might guide us
As we abide
In darkness
Amid rumours of recovery
Which we inevitably anticipate
No matter how speckled
Slippery, or gray
