Meaning Mnemonic
A tree with a mouth eats a beggar and his stool, which were on the ground next to him, which seems to be a bit extreme, don't you think?
Reading Mnemonic
Unfortunately we still haven’t come up with a good reading for きょく, but just try and remember this reading as Goku (ごく) from Dragon Ball Z and his strange step brother Kyoku (きょく). Goku and Kyoku are the beggars in this story, the ones performing all the extremes. First Goku gets eaten by the tree with the mouth, and then Kyoku gets eaten as well.
