Author's Note

"We are double-edged blades, and every time we whet our virtue the return stroke straps our vice. Where is the skillful swordsman who can give clean wounds, and not rip up his work with the other edge?" - Thoreau

Very interesting poem about a stick of gum. I don't think people pay attention to these things, nice job.
