motłoch: meaning rabble, disfranchised mob -
                the affix -ch, denoted as a hark -
motłoch* etymology isn't a history:
               młot = hammer
Loch, i gather means congregation,
Haggis or czarna kiszka...
(blackened intestines)...
         there be i to befriend
a Malcolm or a Macbeth -
there i interim dwell:
abiding i, Cnut of the north,
or as some care to say
escaping the ᚠ (the Iron hur!),
    there be lots chosen and every
turn at a choice a roundabout
with ᚠᚨᚱ - ᛝᛟᚱᛞ -
    far             njord            or
                  njordé       - variant softening of consonants
heading toward variant of theta / phi;
                     sigma and south
enigma and epsilon and east,
westward and Y....
                                   there we were confidants in
absolved stresses, and there once more:
revisionists, mavericks,
                                                   befriending
                        frying, flying,
                         flay thru the fathom -
or the she sells sea shells on the sea shore
                      θought: φaθom? luckily it wasn't
              ******, nor condor;
but enough diatribe wording to make lecherous
                             scavengers congregate and feast.
numb numb nibble nibble, pecking yum;
i always loved hyenas,
                      i ascribed foxes to be akin to them,
less grey and more orange...
              but the laughter twinned them together:
and the night really belonged to them,
and i belonged with the night.
