You know what you know
and you do what you do,
and you keep doing it.
It’s a commitment of sorts
to nothing but commitment
to what you know. You can
only do what you can do.

Commitment

Past, present, future
Evidence of the past continues
to haunt us. No longer can we
count on future promises.
We have before, and where has
It led us?
We are here.
This is now.
Let’s do something while we can.06/27/2021 j.g.l.

By Any Other Name
More obvious than DNA, presence
or personality: identity. Individually,
names are given out by someone else,
by family or memory. Titles awarded
before character is developed,
without our knowledge.A voice we live with. Should you
call out, what will you hear? A name:
in the end, all we are left with. Goodbye.
What you remember and often forget.
Introduction requires random thought
of specific examples.Fingerprint fact and interpretation, a
name, birth date, statistics, history always
living proof of every step taken, up until
now. Evidence you are all you believe in,
selfish presentation of self-image, under
circumstances that change along with us.Do you represent what others might think?
How well do they know you? Would you
be any different under any other name?
Will that person remain the same as you
if it were true? Hello. Ask yourself.
It is a hard title to live up to.06/17/2021 j.g.l.
