Fate has descended upon the hour
Seek out that which is a vacuum of power
A place from which the new replaced the old
A place where the American stories were told
Find this place of a year past
Follow the breadcrumbs follow fast
I am telling you where this trail goes
Don't forget your glasses and your nose
Find the new philosopher-queen
In the room familiar to your year younger teen

I wonder if I've been changed in the night?
Let me think. Was I the same when I got up this morning? I almost think
I can remember feeling a little different. But if I'm not the same,
the next question is 'Who in the world am I?' Ah, that's the great
puzzle!
-Lewis Carroll, Alice's Adventures in WonderlandIt is a thorny undertaking, and more so than it seems, to follow a movement so wandering as that of our mind, to penetrate the opaque depths of its innermost folds, to pick out and immobilize the innumerable flutterings that agitate it.

So, without further delay,
blur the line between work and play
Read The Law
and be prepared
to say what you saw.

In the attempt there may be glory
but nothing else
unless
you identify and read
the following story:

What is it?
Once you've read the story carefully, you will have the key, but where is the lock?

GO, G LO!Once you've read the story carefully, you will have the key, but where is the lock?
In classrooms everywhere students
struggle to see through the eyes of an author. In one classroom,
though, they actually can. Find the reading glasses of the author who
wrote I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, recited her work at a presidential inauguration, and famously said, "Nothing will work unless you do."
These mystical spectacles will help you see what's next. Before you seek them, though, remember to get your story straight.
