From both sides of the tracks
A hundred frog orchestra
Smothers the traffic
Tomorow's paper work
Approaching trains
And I do not care
I am lost in the song
Wondering
If they sing for cousins
Disappearing from our earth
Or friends found with five legs
I stare at a night sky
To focus on the layered rhythms
And watch two suns
Caught in a black hole
Collide and scatter
A shower of sparks
Across a thousand galaxies
Entire solar systems swallowed
Pulverized and compressed
Into a pin head of darkness
Weighing billions of tons
Enough for one mind
To collapse on itself
And still
Here I stand
Worried about frogs
