A bitter chill icy air stars are attached by halos of frost I can only look up tonight That is the only direction There are no poles no lines Made by men. I will use the compass of my heart My instinct instilled through thousands of years My instinct says "Look up child! see all that is yours!" I know what is mine, and as everything, Transient and everchanging. I shall move as the stars do, Silently through a cold night My own path.
