The Man Who Stares Poem by Spanner Thegob

The man who stares from the greatest height
can be the loneliest man,
Glimpsed From the shadowy solitude of success
the air is thin and the view cold.
He reaches the top
only to find himself alone,
His achievements echo a solitude,
isolated from the warmth of human touch
hearts grow cold in the rarefied sun,
his silence speaks to his loneliness.
higher he climbs
carving his name,
but no one knows the weight he bears
Yet the loneliness remains
And as he climbs further
a void opens in his soul.
For the climb echoes of solitude.
He learns that heights can isolate,
That victory's cheer is best when shared in love and friendship,
