Battle of the Clerihew

The destroyer of poetry hides behind PD
But there is nothing destroying that I can see
So come out of hiding and let us all know
What name was endowed that you refuse to show.


I chose a well know person to inflict my clerihew on PD

In many cultures folk think that having a persons name gives you power over them. Sometimes I think PD thinks that? Nice win! Light & Love
