Name

on the phone spelling my name the words never come to mind

C as cat meowing
A as ass braying
T as tender heart
H as honolulu hawaii
E as eden to be on earth
R as romeo and not juliet
I as irony not about to iron your shirt
N never mind
E end of the story

catherine the proper way 
you can call me anything you want
I will answer but then the ordeal of a last name

L as liberty in libation
A as I made an ass of myself again
B as bravo
E as eden an encore I'll repeat myself
A as an apple I leave to the snake
U as ulysses and his travels

confused the soul across the wire ask me to repeat it
and I give it the F and Y
