‘Idál (Justice), 15 ‘Ilm (knowledge) 176 B.E. - Wednesday, October 30, 2019 Anwesenheit, a German word, meaning presence refers to that feeling we get when we're by ourselves of being watched. I discovered this word while reading the Live Science article "Why Are Some Adults Really Afraid of Ghosts?"3 by Stephanie Pappa. Next time I'm alone, and feel that someone is watching me I now know what to call that feeling. Defenestration, which refers to the act of throwing someone out the window.4 I have to thank Robert Waltz for making me aware of this word. I've never had the inclination or the opportunity to defenestration anyone or anything. Probably because I have a lousy aim and would miss the window. Bastard according to dictionary.com one of the one of the origins of this word is the old French term " fils de bast" meaning “child of a packsaddle”.5 For An Untitled Poem "Child of a packsaddle", I can't name you! Bastard, offspring of the muse, who fathered you? I have no clue! Therefore, no title will I give you. Footnotes |
