Traps

The fish trap exists because of the fish;
once you've gotten the fish, you can forget the trap.
The rabbit snare exists because of the rabbit;
once you've gotten the rabbit, you can forget the snare.
Words exist because of meaning;
once you've gotten the meaning, you can forget the words.
Where can I find a man who has forgotten words
so I can have a word with him?
