I imagine
Death writes the contract
and places his seal on the deal
for our new form and identity
though if it is remembered
there was a name attached
to the character of that previous shape
you might hold back your signature
till He answers this question
May I help pick out my new name?
better than the usual procedure where
mom and dad slap on a label that others
learn to rhyme to their cruelest best that
becomes our first introduction to poetry
