The life that learns in the quotations read,
a novel’s-worth where one word’s meant;
wisdom-of-the-day, ticked the magic box.

Warning word brings about saliva instead,
hydrated bearers excite in the malcontent;
the life that learns in the quotations read

the same satisfaction to birth quick bread,
the knowledge missed in signed consent;
wisdom-of-the-day, ticked the magic box.

Influence to spring out like a murphy bed,
impressive and transient like a circus tent:
the life that learns in the quotations read.

Feuds by no terms ignites the cherry red,
words rest in a stasis where they ferment;
wisdom-of-the-day, ticked the magic box.

All meaning transforming mutating anew,
words defending words establishing rule-
a troubling maintenance a mind over-fed:
second-life haunted in authentic disrest-

denying this stasis as if we have no clue,
regarding the convicts of unwritten rule;
implicitly trusting in what’s implicitly best:
dog-paddle to shore in a hyperbolic vest.

The life that learns in the quotations read
wisdom-of-the-day, ticked the magic box.
