I accept

A rope dropped from the sky
Inviting us up for a better view.
But doubters doubted, including why.

It undulated gently in the breeze,
Innocent it was and said just is.
Some said portend! comes dis-ease.

Leave well alone enough already.
So the crowd prevailed,
And convinced us steady.

Such a shame to leave that way--
Could have been a giant up there.
And I have never seen one. What say?
