- MvSS: MaSS/MeSS/MiSS/MoSS/MuSS to MUSS something - it can be straightened out MOSS following the contour of the surface - MISS something - residing in memory and its contour but to MESS something - it can be straightened out MASS undifferentiated beneath the surface in these meanings, entanglement related to dishevelment - perhaps towards, perhaps from, an orderly (if not ordered) state - on one hand, CHAOS, on the other, something MUSSED or a MESS - almost an implication of the ALL in the domestic, inhabitation MOSS following the contour of the surface -:to MUSS something - it can be straightened out:mass/mess/miss/moss/muss:in these meanings, entanglement related to dishevelment - perhaps towards, :almost an implication of the ALL in the domestic, inhabitation ... doll is on one hand, CHAOS, on the other, something MUSSED or a MESS - on we t flesh, it's doll? I Consider the following again, your mass/mess/miss/moss/muss ... ghost comes me beneath your cloth!
