het·ero·nym
Noun: one of two
or more homographs [words that are spelled the same]
that differ in
pronunciation and meaning
(such as a bass voice and bass, a fish)
First Known Use:
circa 1889
51: rebel
You cannot be a rebel if
You choose not to rebel.
This seems so obvious, you know—
The ringing of a bell.
But choose the bells you listen to—
Be careful that the sound
You follow to rebellion won’t
Dispatch you underground.
(Unless that’s where you want to be!)
