      Stan can you explain what Aphorism means to help the less academic so they can participate
      I must away now, I can no longer tarry
      This morning's tempest I have to cross
      I must be guided without a stumble
      Into the arms I love the most

            Sure Lymes, it's a general truth, principle, or astute observation, said in a concise and memorable form, such as "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".

            Maybe some could even spark debate
