a tiny tyrant that holds civilizations, grenades, and your future together with one bent wire

means A short, slender piece of metal with a sharp point, used to fasten, secure, or attach things together.

from From Old English 'pinn,' meaning a peg or bolt, likely borrowed from Latin 'pinna' (a feather, point, or pinnacle) — the same root that gives us 'pinnacle' and 'pinnate.' The humble fastening pin and the lofty mountain peak are, improbably, distant relatives, both born from the idea of something that comes to a point.
