And thought maybe "Cindy" or "Mindy"
Spanked at the start

So everyone knew she was, "Wendy"...

her mother thought that it

a wild and rambunctious child
Deloris would surely make her mild

The turkey does not come from Turkey.
We humans are totally quirky.
Why call it a Turkey?
The reasons are murky.
Such naming is strikingly jerky....

Lying flat on our backs
Parallel to the sky
Both completely relaxed
Lying flat on our backs
Naming clouds that go by
Just sweet Jonah and I
Lying flat on our backs
Parallel to the sky...

The Loop
Birth is the echo of death undone,
each breath a leash to the infinite.
We orbit ourselves,
naming the stars as if they’ll stay.
But time only dances in circles—
wearing masks we once wore....

Her silly name caused a to do

Her mother’s not pleased

To My Sister
What lines of mine
can bind you into symmetry?
Can a fence stop a shout?
Silence, a light?
I watch you pass above my imagination.
My words can only lie here
and play at naming
your shifting shapes....

Mystery of Explanation
Objectification
Is told as the process
Of the mind in
Naming and describing
Whatever appears..

Pops up in

Cannot be explained..

lets rename Earth
Earth
The only planet
Not named after a Greek God or Goddess
Is it too late for a re-naming?
Or do others care?
Being an air sign,
Earth seems rather dull to me
A dud of a name
I wish Mercury had not already been taken...
