What words do to me every week?

I issued new books from library. This week I was mostly flippant. Flipped through books arbitrarily.

They are fleeting.
They are fragile.
They require

little water.
They’ll surprise you.
They’ll remind you

that they aren’t
and they are you.

-Flowers, Wendy Videlock

Beautiful, don't you think?

And the following is from a movie I recently watched:

Alan: I'm Alan Lombardo, stage three lymphoma. Pleased to meet you.
Mitch: Mitch Barnett, metastatic prostate cancer.
Adam: Nice to meet you. Oh, I'm Adam Lerner, schwannoma neurofibrosarcoma.

 -50/50, Jonathan Levine, 2011

And I find the MLA citation to be very confusing. So I have invented one myself.
