To the Williamson Brothers
High noon. White sun flashes on the Michigan Avenue asphalt. Drum of hoofs and whirr of motors. Women trapsing along in flimsy clothes catching play of sun-fire to their skin and eyes.

Inside the playhouse are movies from under the sea. From the heat of pavements and the dust of sidewalks, passers-by go in a breath to be witnesses of large cool sponges, large cool fishes, large cool valleys and ridges of coral spread silent in the soak of the ocean floor thousands of years.

A naked swimmer dives. A knife in his right hand shoots a streak at the throat of a shark. The tail of the shark lashes. One swing would kill the swimmer... Soon the knife goes into the soft underneck of the veering fish... Its mouthful of teeth, each tooth a dagger itself, set row on row, glistens when the shuddering, yawning cadaver is hauled up by the brothers of the swimmer.
Outside in the street is the murmur and singing of life in the sun—horses, motors, women trapsing along in flimsy clothes, play of sun-fire in their blood.

A friend, to us did come who’s sore,
You should have heard his awful roar.
A copper on the great high-way
Caught him in a trap one day.
highway infrastructure sound zoomorphism
The trap was some few hundred feet,
The cop was on his motor, fleet.
With watch in hand he felt so nifty
And made our friend out doing fifty.
driving motorcycle speed car metaphor
One second more and he’d done ninety,
The cops they worked it almost nightly.
No show our friend would ever get
When face to face the judge he met.
risk speed
No one has yet a copper known
Whose word’s not better than your own.
No judge has ever yet been found
With whom your word would fair go down.
But now our friend’s in greatest glee,
The palmy days are o’er you see.
The law has stopped the use of traps
To curb abuse of motor chaps.
Our friend, to us he did confide
That motor cops would have to ride.
No more hiding by the road,
No more chance our friend to goad.
driving
No more loafing on the job,
No more innocents to rob.
They must ride both night and day
If they can hope to earn their pay.
driving time
No more poker in the shade,
No more chance to make a raid.
No more chance for them to hide,
They must ride and ride and ride.
driving
It long has been our own opinion,
That here within our small dominion,
Many men have paid a fine
Just from persecution blind.
If all our officers were true
And treated as the same as you,
Our friend would then feel he were safer
Where'er he'd go in a Studebaker.

Texts
How to create new Category:Texts pages and annotate paragraphs.
Enter the name of the page. The name is relevant for searching and should be the same as the title of the text.
Metadata
Insert a <meta> section.
Note: Attributes like genre are case sensitive!
<meta
author="Dreiser, Theodore;Sandburg, Carl;Sinclair, Lewis"
additional_information="Info text here.."
genre="Novel,Thriller"
journal="Journal1, Journal2"
publisher="Publisher1, Publisher2"
year_of_publication="2000,2001"
page_range="1-10"
/>
The author attribute can have multiple values separated by a ";" semicolon.
The attributes genre, journal, publisher, year_of_publication can have multiple values separated by a "," comma.
Attributes can be omitted completely and are shown as "-" in the Bibliographic Information section on the text page.
Annotations
Its best to look at already annotated pages to get a feeling for how the markup works.
Put all annotations inside <annotations>...</annotations> elements.
Define paragraphs via <paragraph keywords="keyword1,keyword2">paragraph text</paragraph>
The keywords attribute can have multiple values separated by a "," comma.
There can be multiple paragraphs.
Use <pagenr>(1)</pagenr> elements to display page number information inside paragraphs.
Use <poem>...</poem> inside paragraphs to keep formatting exactly like in the editor. See Extension:Poem for further formatting instructions.
Use wikitext like == CHAPTER I == between paragraphs for headlines and other wiki markup for styling. See Help:Formatting for information on formatting syntax.
Authors
How to create new Category:Authors pages.
Enter the name of the author. This should always follow the same naming convention throughout the wiki e.g. Frost, Robert .
Insert an author infobox and related texts section with the following wikitext:
{{Infobox Author
| gender = Male
| ethnicity = African, American
| nationality = African
| life span = quite long
}}
The ethnicity parameter can have multiple values separated by a "," comma.
Attributes can be omitted completely and are shown as "-" in the Bibliographic Information section on the author page.
nationality and life span are not used for searching and can therefore contain any text.

It’s known to all to be the law,
That interest should you wish to draw,
On something that you have within,
You first must put that something in.
For you, your business does not pay,
And you lament from day to day,
You have not to your business given,
That from which pay is deriven.
Your goose it lays a golden egg,
Marks up your interest just a peg,
But feed, you must, your goose of old,
If you would get your egg of gold.
If interest in your church has died,
It doesn’t revive although you’ve tried,
Just ask yourself and look within
To see what you are putting in.
If your home is not going right,
You stay out late most every night,
You have no longer interest there,
You’ve no investment worth the care.
If you have brothers in your lodge,
You now quite often try to dodge,
Then your interest’s growing slim,
You must put in if you would win.
All through life as taught by Him,
If you take out you must put in,
It’s things you do for all about,
You take your biggest interest out.
With motor cars it’s just the same,
What’s been put in comes out again.
Now you can make your own deduction,
From the Studebakers’ big production.
