Starry Night

"This is clear as the orange moon light. Still
it is no less difficult for me;
I live in the place between the twin hills."

I live in the place between the twin hills
where the grass is a green ocean by a gentle sea
and cosmos and chaos have a battle of wills.

Some people (foolish, weary, and ill)
stand and ask me how can it be
I live in the place between the twin hills?

"Simple," I say, "We all can have our fill;
we all have a place on the human tree
as cosmos and chaos have their battle of wills."

This is clear as the orange moon light. Still
it is no less difficult for me;
I live in the place between the twin hills.

Most come and go over these hills;
they believe the climb allows them to not see
how cosmos and chaos have a battle of wills.

Regardless of all I have or how I apply my skills,
I know the battle is still within me.
I live in the place between the twin hills
where cosmos and chaos have their battle of wills.
