When Thoreau acquired the bareword, he was struck by the impermanence of everything his life was built around. The Organization's knowledge meant nothing in the face of this thing that could circumvent all their rules. So he found meaning in permanently altering the world in such a way that nothing could erase it: "building a tower". In order to do this, he would need to get people to serve him. The bareword was a convenient means to that end.
