Today's Stichomancy for Mark Twain

The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Rinkitink In Oz by L. Frank Baum:

But now he's in a zoo; A lion, captive-born and caged, Now roams the forest through.

A man once slapped a poor boy's pate And made him weep and wail. The boy became a magistrate And put the man in jail.

A sunny day succeeds the night; It's summer -- then it snows! Right oft goes wrong and wrong comes right, As ev'ry wise man knows."
