Who knew? Who knew that a lonely prominent chunk of Earth, of bare rock, dirt, snow, trees, and grass, high up in the clouds, could demand so much respect? Who knew?
Who knew? Who knew that one day She would earn a name? Who knew that She would cause humans to toil for hours, to lose sleep, to sacrifice relationships, just to stand on top of Her (multiple times) as a champion of a foot race? Who knew?
Who knew? Does She care? No. A trip, a fall, a crash, a bloody gash, screaming calves, shredding quads, brain fog…She still doesn’t care.
Barely noticing the hundreds of marching feet on Her east face, She offers Pain and Prize, yet holds no grudges, and deals no judgement. Who knew?
