Abstract

This poem-essay is about the strangeness of the hidden tropes that inhabit at the very core of our words and idioms. We can uncover them through the study of etymology, which is in a way a type of archaeological poetry. We can think of that exposure of concealed and forgotten tropes as an occasion to give them new uses, to rewrite them. In fact, the verses-arguments of this piece end up metamorphosing into a narrative plot.
