Should We?

I have been thinking
Quite deeply
And inanely
About naming
That, should we a kid sire
No foreign tag hire
Thus the name be Boeing 11-5-14-25-1
Since ye morality sliding

I have searched
and also heard
About my son’s exploits
Maybe it is his
Secretive Genitive Results
But I have heard
Of the geese laying
Of the donkeys braying
But geese demise such abrupt
Those donkeys left to scheme

I have also thought
About the hill-top house
Ere, mine thoughts about it naught
But the pangs of the onslaught
Have brought mine mind to think
I have thought

I have cried
I have mourned
And wailed
Wishing away this black pest
That so taller than the white one stand
So noticeable in his black deeds

I have watched him
Raping ruthlessly and ravenously
Her bequeathed fragrance
As the ordeal continues

I have always sat
On this archaic mat
Imagining
Wishing
And whining
On this furnished four flowery mat
My heart has ached

I have thought of changing his name
Boeing 11-5-14-25-1
Such an indigenous name but a fatality
Life now above the hinges hiked
Basics in ante millennia and post millennia
Untenable

I have thus my thoughts summed
I have raffled my feathers
Giants must be re-awakened
Do they lose- those that don’t have?
Thoughts prod me
You should!
You should!
My temples are awakened
You should!
You should!
Comrades, should we?
