I have just felt the blow that a god feels when he is first returned to mortality
not to say I am, or ever was, a god but I do mean to say I was powerful, strong, impenetrable even, and I have now been hit with the force of a hurricane across the newly soft and vulnerable cheeks of my face
I had risen so far, in my mind, but I was worse than ever as I’ve found out
now, I am sick with it
the return to humanity the plummet to vulnerability the paralyses of that first strike
I am a titan no more and yet I never was
but this fall back to normality is like the death of someone I only realized I hated after his grave had been spat on by so many of his former friends
