One Or Two Words
Suntaxis: Particles of dust one
sees journeying inside
Morning sunlight streaming
Into a dark room.
Also Greek for syntax:
to combine, to arrange.
Astynax: Opposite of syntax, As spelt by me?
No. Young son of
Hector and Andromache
Killed by the conquering
Greeks.
For Monica Mody, whose assegai (a Berber spear) made me dust the dictionary.
