The word misanthrope is human to the core—literally. One of its parents is the Greek noun anthrōpos, meaning “human being.” Its other parent is the Greek verb misein, meaning “to hate.” Misein also gave Englishmisogamy (“a hatred of marriage”), misogyny (“hatred of women”), misology (“a hatred of argument, reasoning, or enlightenment”), and misoneism (“a hatred, fear, or intolerance of innovation or change”). Anthrōpos also joined forces with phil- (a combining form meaning “loving”) to form the Greek ancestor of philanthropy(“active effort to help other people”). We also findanthrōpos when we delve into the foundations of the word anthropology.

NOW THERE IS NO VERTICAL
When you struck me,I vibrated like a kettle drum,
then as smaller percussions and repercussions
echoing from all the glassy surfaces
creating a balletic geometry of sound tracks
in space and time.
When you knocked me down,
I fell against her and her and her;
we were like a row of skittles
and we all went down with the lifeboat;
The infinite chain of being is.
When you hit me,the Fall spread across the world
Now there is no Vertical
All is undivine and graceless.
By the Rod it’s ruled
When you left me,I left myself,the world,the rocks,dry land
I weighed down sank to the ocean bed
with coral eyes
gazing.
When you struck my mind
I became an instrument of a foreign power
Singing a song I didn’t know.
When the glass was smashed
the splinters flew into all our hearts.
You didn’t know what we couldn’t see.
I lay on barren ground and gave birth
To my own Creator in the desert
How my heart sings
