means A wen is an old word for a harmless lump or cyst on the skin, especially one on the head — a growth that just sits there, benign and stubborn.

from From Old English 'wenn,' a Germanic word for a boil or tumor-like swelling, with cousins in other Germanic languages carrying the same lumpy meaning. It survived in English mostly as a quaint, almost obsolete medical term — which makes its crypto afterlife ('wen moon?') a strange, fitting joke: a word for a thing that swells up, grows, and never quite resolves.
