Analysis of Cyphers Brief
Complex thoughts
need simple words
The meaning foremost
verse to show
The mind expands
new seeds put down
Cross pollinated
left to grow
The soil fertile
just sun and rain
As fields once fallow
rise anew
The world awaits
each problem solved
In cyphers brief
— with letters few
