ILL iteratii

the illiterate, but wise

Book-larnin'?  Street smarts, school of hard knocks
Up! up! my friend, and quit your books - William Wordsworth
Alive!  Your life is an open book
bless you're soul, you really think you're in control?
   who writes your book?  co-written? new chapters
Actual, not vicarious, experience
Lots of drama, excitement (vs. exciting writing)
Old age, experience, wisdom, memories
wise youth, before learning to read
not fuddy-duddy, like daddy
not twisted, like some elders
knowing the G7: who what where when why how which
who you are, what you want
where you're going, when, why, how,
and which way:  sometimes forward (progress)
maybe it's better to go back (not necessarily regress)

illuminati, feeling ill
just luminati, like a lamp
lumens, units of luminous flux
a light snack (said the plant)
naughty or nice
