I guess...
that I can see where the title might be apt. I like the statement of the one word and then a terse explanation of what it means to the writer. It works for me. ~ Geezer.

your poem
I really enjoyed the originality of presenting a few touches to define a word. I consider them very well constructed, like tight Imagist poetry. Because I think they are so well done, I do not like the title, which makes them seem more trite, as ramblings of thought. They are little gems!
I also generally dislike the style of one word to a line poetry,

that
but it works great here, as each word has significance and enough weight to carry a line. It gives each word a charge.
So i think this is an outstanding poem.
My only complaint...
is that I believe this to be free verse and not structured western. Otherwise, I agree with Eumolpus.
