together      again

     just me      and my friend

 

what’s your name

     it’s the same

           you should know

 

the wind’s up      a trifle

     but  Oh so delightful

 

once again

     here’s my friend

           off we go

 

we’ve been here      before

     many years     maybe more

 

still the same

     what’s its name

           I should know

 

be he    a female

     or she be    a male

 

I can’t tell

     never will

           I don’t know

 

no name    for those things

     we cannot explain

 

it’s a game

     take a name

           so we know

 

my friend has  so long been

     and will be  again

 

just a same thing

     sans a name

           long after I go

 

some things are strange names

     some names are so

 

why struggle with name games

     just to let go

 

some things are strange things

     we’re not meant to know
