VILOMAH
POLLY HOLLYAOK
DATE HERE 14 OCT-5 NOV
We have words for those living with loss: orphan, widow, widower, but there is no precise term in English to describe a parent who has lost a child. The absence of such a word reveals a strange semantic gap.
Vilomah is Sanskrit for against natural order and is gaining momentum as a word to describe such loss.
MONOCHROME
