The Peculiar Name
A peculiar name
Is not the same
As any other name
You may say
Any other rose
By a different name
Smells the same
But not necessarily
Nay, nay
A peculiar name
Such as mine
Encases the embodiment
Of joy and refine
Not to mention
The lovely scent of pine
A name can define
A life or a line
But not every time
Especially in the case of Leera Slime
That poor dear soul
Leera Slime
The name brought sorrow
And one friend, sole
But Leera Slime
Was very kind
And sweet and also gentle
And all of them combined
In many cases
The name places
The dear soul in tight little spaces
In attempt to win all the name races
But a name defines
Whether you're Criminal Crime
Or Lillian Prime
But not necessarily
Not all the time
