Two-Dimensional Tag.A Poem by Ben Lingemann
I despise names and
call them the false handle- that they are. A grip of pre-molded proportions, framed in impertinent memory. An acerbic peremptory command of character stamped neatly at birth, a great girth of foreshadowing left pregnant by passing humanity. Crystallized now, dutifully, by the willful populace, which we the children- bear in baleful ignorance. You cannot help but have an altered perception and unconsciously define, as if, a title was the crux of my character. © 2011 Ben LingemannAuthor's Note
