It's a tract against capital punishment in the genre of Swift's Modest Proposal. I was simply following a formula to its logical conclusion. Some people appear to have understood it.

The tops of mountains are among the unfinished parts of the globe, whither it is a slight insult to the gods to climb and pry intotheir secrets, and try their effect on our humanity.

Pomola is always angry with those who climb the summit of Ktaadn. — Henry David Thoreau

And by the bright tract of his fiery car
Gives token of a goodly day to-morrow. — William Shakespeare
