It’s important
what you get called
has a name,
one you can take
to the ivory
border
It’s important
what you’re called
is remembered the same,
today recollected
tomorrow
reordered
A mark on the stone
no longer
unknown,
your history and
legacy
rendered
Sapphire crystal
overlord set,
the past
eponymous
the future

(The New Room: February, 2021)
Accompli'
The final poem that I write…
a comment on itself
(Dreamsleep: February, 2021)
OORAH
The land of the free,
the home of the brave
Inclusive together
—America saved
(Valley Forge: February, 2021)
Ah Liberty
If
“Condemned To Be Free”
as Sartre said,
Then
doom me forever
—unchained and unled
(Bryn Mawr Pennsylvania: February, 2021)

indeed, in a world where 'Smith' is symbolic of the mundane and 'Ferrari' - of the exotic:
what's in a name, 'they' ask...
a thought provoking write, as always
thanks for sharing
Very insightful again. Thanks LB.
