The mighty Sun Pyramid before me. **One can still climb to the top** of the pyramids in Teotihuacan. I join the masses and slowly make my way up the steep steps under the blazing sun. I think back to those that sacrificed themselves to the Gods during a similar journey.**Would I be willing to lay down my life**, let my head be separated from my body for the good of the people? The stones slick with blood, the chants of the holy priest that echo against the walls.**Or perhaps I am the one** that is handing down judgement, demanding that others lay down their lives. King and executioner I may be as I reign over my kingdom that has been built on the backs of the poor.We may never truly know what was in the hearts of men that ruled this city. ### Share this: * [ Email ](https://mywalkabout.net/the-pyramids-of-the-sun-and-the-moon/?subject=%5BShared%20Post%5D%20The%20Pyramids%20of%20the%20Sun%20and%20the%20Moon&body=https%3A%2F%2Fmywalkabout.net%2Fthe-pyramids-of-the-sun-and-the-moon%2F&share=email) * [Post](https://x.com/share) * [Share on Tumblr](https://www.tumblr.com/share) * [ WhatsApp ](https://mywalkabout.net/the-pyramids-of-the-sun-and-the-moon/?share=jetpack-whatsapp) * [ Nextdoor ](https://mywalkabout.net/the-pyramids-of-the-sun-and-the-moon/?share=nextdoor) * [ Threads ](https://mywalkabout.net/the-pyramids-of-the-sun-and-the-moon/?share=threads) * [[ * [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) * [ Reddit ](https://mywalkabout.net/the-pyramids-of-the-sun-and-the-moon/?share=reddit) ### Like this: Like Loading…
