                                         ­                Havoc

                       What is havoc, and how does one wreak it?

Havoc is a condition or state of being
That apparently exists only to be wrought
(There is no such word in English as “wreaked”)
A wreak does not now obtain without a havoc
And there is no havoc without a wreak
Journalists can't seem to get through an article without writing "wreaking havoc." Do they know even what it means?
