By Any Other Name
William Shakespeare says
A rose by any other name
Would smell as sweet
But would it
Really?
Our world says
That a sin
By any other name
Isn’t
A
Sin
Something
By any other name
Changes our views
If you called
A rose a skunk cabbage
Would it smell as sweet?
If you called
Lust
Attraction
Would it be any different?
You can’t call
Life
Death
By any other name
It’s not true.
Changing the name
May change the
Meaning
Changing the world
May change
Our eternity
By any other name
Isn’t as true
As some people
Would like to believe.
By any other name
Is a myth many people
Foolishly believe.
