" Fist " , according to the dictionary is a " noun " as it's the name of a person,

place, or thing. However, also in my point of view, it is also a " verb " , an

action. A fist only exists if it's " being made " and " held " via effort(ing). When

the intention/activity of " making " a fast disappears, then the " fist " is no

longer, just the hand at ease. So a " fist " is a " contraction " , just like the

" separate me " sense, fear, worry, stress, etc.

All nouns are verbs in the sense that they are moving contructs in an

activity of observation. The action of observation situates observer

and observed in apparent interaction relative to each other, yet

because they depend on the interactive activity, they aren't ever

really situated. Their apparent stablity is constructed by the

observer in an attempt to maintain fixed reference points, yet they

can never have more fixity than the abstracted " observer. "

grammatically, though, it is strictly a noun.

there is no word " to fist " .

Not to quibble, as I understand and agree. However, at the same time, " to fist "

one's partner (verb) does exist in some forms of sexual interaction. Ouch!
