The Purple Cast

A breath is not a word
A whisper is not a sentence
Pain is not a paragraph
But Pride and Prejudice do make a book

What is a word?
Where is a sentence?
Who is paragraph?
When is a book?

All these question race through our minds
The universal quest for understanding
Flat on our backs, we contemplate
While the ambulance siren sounds
