Just a poem about the value placed on names.
By what word shall you call me?
Is there a word to signify?
Will I answer its call swiftly?
Will its sound defy
all my will;
the duty names fulfill?
If there be such a word
Then 'twas first announced
As the song of a mocking bird
In the first things you pronounced.
