The Traveling University

The traveling university came with its
leather-bound volumes, titles stamped in gold

its library stacks dusty with wisdom
deep seats of leather worn to an aged glow

its fruitwood-inlay reading stands
and the classrooms crowded with humble desks

and oh! the professors in their
long white coats, their beards and berets

carrying flights of important texts
and writing answers to all the questions of Life

in impenetrable calligraphy on the walls of the world
I said thank you, I prefer questions.
