Poetry: Ascent!
Ascent!
I have climbed
to the very
top
and nothing
will stop
me from
going
higher!
I reach for you
we both
should
be here
but you
have gone
to Hell as I
commanded.
I am Moses
and don’t
give a damn!
Filthy tricks!
You have never
given me
what I need!
So,
still playing tricks,
but
I’m here, now,
see?
And I will never
leave you
alone.

I’ve gathered segments of Cohen’s testimony from different news outlets
for the sake of comparison.
Below is a link to most of the testimony:
And because I can’t resist:
