Success is Not Sorcery

I have heard of you.

You take a flight at dawn
and arrive the same moment.

But your path,
the greats did not tread.

Each started his flight
and let it scrape
through the motions
and the clouds,
and after a while,
landed safely;

because they wanted success.

But you are sorcery
who gratifies in an instant.

Why should I want you,
if they never did?
