Supercilium: an eyebrow. Raised, superciliously, as I wish I could raise mine.
Sussurant: whispering, the sibilants hissing like the echo in a sea shell.
Truckle: to submit. Do you buckle when you truckle?
Ephemeris: an astronomical table. The positions of the stars are, like the mayfly, ephemeral. As are we all, under the stars.
Girasol: fire opal, sunflower, turning to the sun.
Corybantic: frenzied, dancing in ecstasy for Cybele.
Salmagundi: a miscellany, a mixture, a salad with everything. Would be a good title for a blog, maybe. Or for this post.
