A veil is draped

across the stars

as the midnight god

takes her throne.

Blue burns black.

 

A grip

of withered branches

pluck her from the sea

like an old woman's

shriveled finger.

 

Light weeps

down a braided trunk.

Grey burns silver.

 

The giant,

towering in pride and greatness,

shivers as moonlight bleeds

into a thousand supple rings.

 

The midnight god wields her power

and an icy wind takes hold,

wicked and restless.

Green burns red.
