07/25 - Water and Time

As the tide washed in, the Dutch Tulip Man faced the ocean: "Conjoiner rejoinder poisoner concealer revelator. Look at it, rising up and rising down, taking everything with it."
"What's that ?", I asked.
"Water", the Dutchman said, " Well, and time."
                                                      - PETER VAN HOUTEN, An Imperial Affliction


conjoiner = consist of more than one entity. Conjoined twins, conjoined minds
rejoinder = witty comeback
poisoner = slayer, killler, someone who kills with poison
concealer = hidden, out of sight,
revelator = prophetic, indicative, indicatory, suggestive,
