What is required inquired the man to go from here to the forward place
Where all is friutful and kind. What is the fare I that must pay.
I have done the work, shouldered the burden and carried on through foul and fair, so my friend tell me the secret please share if you will.

You are a big man even large of stature and tall in stance. Look forward .
Be humble. Recede within. less is greater.
Said the keeper.

Parables have been my  lifelong bane  so  I inquire further what is the fare. To whom must I
pass my fee. I am a man of import and great desires.  My time is of value and well worth the wait but
still I inquire who holds the gate.

The gate will open but you must bend,
you will be required to bow your head
and and proceed with humility.
The gate is wide but the
passage low.

Bow your head and the truth
will show.
