Goigrium

n. A plant of the halifax family, sub-branch Euthanasia fallitropus, found in the mythological flora of suicides (c. 1229), there symbolizing death by superconscious, though conspicuous, means, but containing a powerful, pulsing pustule, allowing the entire plant — roots, leaves, stem, and aura — when in its mature state, to become (but only in some universally detached disguise as it went wandering) a great variety (a whole flora) of other shrubs of wholly different genealogies, histories, and characteristics, allowing, therefore, a survival through disguise and therefore beyond disguise.

Stice

n. A semi-sweet, slightly sour and peppery fruit, squarish and measuring on average twenty centimeters in length, green to orange to yellow (depending on the season) with a smell akin to “modified” tangerines, and having a stipply, rigorous skin interspersed with white stars (reverse pores), becoming ripe in mid-April to early May and grown commercially in and around Nagercoil in the Cape Comorin area on the extreme southern tip of the Indic Peninsula.
