The Title in black on top of scattered parchment paper with blurred poems on them.

To

Live,

Is to explore.

To

Explore,

Is to learn.

To

Learn

Is to err.

~

To

Err

Is to learn.

~

The

Human embodiment,

Of learning.

`

Is

To fail.

~

Is

To fail.

`

Is

To learn.

~

And,

There

Is no

Better teacher

Than

The err.

~

That

Is,

If you truly

Wish to learn.

~

If

You stop.

~

If

You say

That

You’re done.

~

If

You say

That

It’s not

For you.

~

You

Shall never,

Achieve greatness.

~

For

The master

Failed,

More times

Then the novice,

As tried.
