Some words hold power in the same way the unknown does. I can take comfort in words, every day I see them, they imprint a calm in the knowledge I am aware what each one means. That is, until posed against certain, particular compositions of letters.
Macabre. A word that can bring a lot to mind, to some it calls forth associated images. To me, the word is empty. Hollow, but within that husk lie hints towards its meaning. An aspect of this effect, comes from its infrequent use. It is an, uncommon word. In most circumstances, another more usual denotation suffices for convey a frightening core.
But, it is then, when the mere presence of it is required, that alone brings discomfort towards its application.
It is just a word though. Everything is.
