Echidna and Worldlet Triolet
Isn’t it odd that a word defines,
And yet it’s own meaning can be shady?
Echidna, today, is a mammal with spines,
Isn’t it odd that a word defines?
An ancient worldlet says echidna combines
The tail of a snake and the head of a lady.
Isn’t it odd that a word defines,
And yet it’s own meaning can be shady?
In response to the twelfth “Classical and Sci-fi dictionary” prompt from NaPoWriMo.net
My chosen words were “worldlet” (sci-fi) and “Echidna” (classical).
