pentagram

A pentagram is a five pointed star. Traditionally, the five points of the star represent the four elements (Earth, Water, Fire, and Air) and Spirit. An upright pentagram represents the triumph of spirit over matter, while an inverted pentagram represents the descent of spirit into matter. Pentagrams are often used in magick, usually to invoke or banish elemental energies when casting a circle. Not to be confused with a pentacle, which is simply a pentagram with a circle around it.

Historical associations of the pentagram include the five senses, the five fingers, the five wounds of Christ, and astrological representation of the five planets: Jupiter, Mercury, Mars and Saturn, and Venus. Modern day associations include: the upright pentagram (or pentacle) as a symbol of adherents to Wicca/Paganism/Witchcraft (much as a Christian would wear a cross as a symbol of their faith). An inverted pentagram with a goat's head, called the Sigil Baphomet, is the official symbol for the Church of Satan.
Earthsong called upon the elemental energies, describing an invoking pentagram at each quarter of the circle.

Unfortunately, the pentagram and pentacle have been mass marketed along with "punk-rock" in stores such as Hot Topic and Spencers as a form of teenage rebellion (remember the movie "The Craft"? Ugh!).

Pent-amour -nest
Abbreviation
Male: pentam.
Female: nesty.
Greek, French, Neolithic

Five to love in order to nest

Darwin was wrong to say it's the less women, or only woman a man sees which makes a man more sexually prominent, when it's the more. A nesty sees five seperate pentam who not meet or know one another, & unless they're the father of her children not come near her home or children. Seeing 3-5 seperately, pentam are able to tell between them if she's in the same condition as last seen her. She tells if there's anything wrong with any of them by the wobble in the others. Pentamournesty makes sense of that when with a woman, a man is more attractive to other women.
A woman is either 'wifey' or 'other woman' when not seeing 3-5 & 'nesty'. A nesty needn't worry about the 'other women', so long as there are only 2-4 any man she's seeing sees besides her. The 'other woman' tend not to need to be supported. The 'wifey' is a buffer. Any male friends she & her 1 spouse have are typically his more than hers. Her dad may have told her men only want one thing, meaning sex, but that he only watched her leave home into the arms of another man, his of his own, so that the next man would continue to have what to want like one, no man ever thinks to ask her if she too thinks that the relationship that's holy is between her & what good male friend she has.
"A pentamournest woman lives next door with her children, but I never see any males who look like boyfriends over there. She tells me she's known 5 seperate men over a long time who she cares for very dearly, each who support her, who's lives each remind her of the chalk drawings Poppins jumps through."

iambic pentameter

Each set of sounds has one that shall be stressed
and in these two shall there be one is not
of sets of two no less than five be wrought
and with these sets a subject be addressed
if with these lines one seeks to form a verse
the rhymes each line one first must understand
two sets of four the first and last shall stand
between lay those who differ from the first

at the end of all shall be six lines again
cointaineth they the rhythm of above
their rhyme can differ but I shall begin
with rhyme of three and then the same again
second different from those it is one of
'tis pit'ous that I lack a line to end
See above as example...
