Augustus was never too good at doing stuff, but he was always good at standing.
So, he stood there. And he stood there. And he stood there.
At first, Augustus was only standing for a couple of minutes. But after about 60 minutes or so, Augustus had been standing for an hour.
That hour turned into 3, which turned into 4, and so on.
Before Augustus knew it, he had been standing there for a day.
Then, that day turned into a few, and then several, and then many.
Eventually, Augustus found that he had been standing in the same place for 3 months.
Those months multiplied themselves by 4, and Augustus stood for a year.
He stood. He stood still. He stood for nothing.
Augustus figured that if he stood there, and stood there, and stood long enough, that maybe someone else would walk by and do something interesting.
And maybe, from where he was standing, Augustus figured he might be able to see the interesting thing take place.
And maybe still, if he could see the interesting thing take place, maybe it would come close enough to touch.
And perhaps, if he could touch the interesting thing, he could grab ahold of it.
