Conquerers of colossal Everest
Once surrendered to molehills aplenty,
Yet admiration seeks solely success,
Stories of struggles buried beneath.
Conjurers of bewitching poetry
Once conjured abysmal cacophony,
Yet masterpieces mesmerise many,
Stories of struggles buried beneath..
Tales of triumph storytellers spin,
Whose defeats, untold, remain.
