A celestial chessboard of night and day, where a giant star-filled hand moves medieval figures like chess pieces, with an open doorway at the right edge — an illustration of Omar Khayyám's Rubáiyát.

“We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.”

The rook folds in beside him.

At the far end of the light,
She is standing behind nights,
She has not moved once.
She watches. A knight begins to stir.
