[teapeebubbles]

the worthless word for the day is: foetor

/FEE tor/
an offensive odor: stench (also fetor)

Dearest comrades, all is over and long gone,
But love is not over - and what love, O comrades
Perfume from battle-fields rising,
up from the foetor arising.
- Walt Whitman, from "Ashes of Soldiers"
