Watching the words play on the page,
he begins to learn the rules of thier game.
He converses with the referees and officials,
known to most as grammar and punctuation.
He is introduced to the all the players,

the distance and together become champions.
Such a wonder, that such a wondrous
world arose from twenty six scribbles
and a few meager symbols in between.
