New Words, Old Thoughts

New Words, Old Thoughts is a volume written to try and explain in simple poems the relationships between words and thoughts. The poems are meant to provoke one's own ideas about the relevancy between the origin of words and their usage by mankind. That usage has a way of borrowing from other languages words that can help explain reality. Perhaps it is this borrowing that has man perplexed in fact it is a common occurrence. The root of many words in all the languages of the world, both alive and dead, can be traced in some form or another back to singular points of origin. That origin has become deluded as the years have passed into centuries and millenniums thus take for granted some do not realize how this has occurred. I do not profess to be the sage rather a seer.
