Most venerated being history
has birthed, yet He is lonely
beyond belief.
Imagine
watching the life of your child,
every day, every day,
watching him worship you blind.
You can't say thank you.
Natural phenomenon, selfish gain;
a ladder to reach the heavens.
Now he truly tests his son's dedication:
'Climb, my boy, climb.'
