He knows it's probably
more steps than he can climb
or at least more steps
than he cares to climb.
Still, though, he knows
no one gets in until they knock.
He feels like he's been knocking
and knocking and knocking
but the gates won't open
until he finishes his climb.
He takes those last few steps
and he smiles at the doctor.
The doctor flicks the switch.
