Etymology
I am keen to discover evolution
and origins words. Gaza is one.
I drew it on a balloon and then
decided to inflate it so I pumped
air from my lungs through the
narrow tunnel and watched it
in the mirror as their land mass
increased. It was such a joy to
see especially as it was at their
greedy evil neighbours expense.
Smithereens is the next word I
needed to look up after a needle
pricked the expansion exercise.
Now I need to find the semantic
of Ethnology to understand the
significance and consequence
of having a thorn on one's side.
