Endless World Conflicts

Inspired by an ancient poem. V

Bamboo-cooled breezes pervade my chamber.
Blinking stars appear and disappear.
Roaming moonbeams invade each container.
Laden dewdrops into gobbets cohere. 
Self-lit fireflies pepper the dark. 
Calling water birds herald the dawn.

Thinking of myriad lances clashing in vain.
Tormented, sleepless, I follow the night.
