Notes and comments
Zeno has had a disastrous holiday and is fuming at the sarcastic holiday rep. Unfortunately, having meditated on ahimsa he cannot resort to violence and must hold his anger in.
…
1. Ahimsa: Principle of non-violence advocated by Gandhi (and Zeno before him!)
2. Haem it: To ‘haem it’ means to redden with anger (my coinage). Haem is a red organic pigment found in haemoglobin.
3. Anon: Here used for ‘anonymously’.
