NAMEPLATE
Think a
lot about existence, savor,
Think a
lot, departures devour,
Think a
lot possesses position,
Think a
lot, assets destruction, (1)
Think a
lot about qualifications, titles,
Think a
lot, scorn like belittles,
Sleeping
on a hospital bed, think,
Life on
a whisker whisper sink, (2)
Birth
and a cry of happy tears lit,
Celebrate
a name designated fit,
That
bracketed, clan race root,
Fragile
was the frame barefoot, (3)
Walk
school college university,
Books
in hand dress intensity,
Only
the thought of achieving it,
Degree,
certificate, name exist, (4)
The
school knew the name college,
University
degrees knowledge,
Hot
tear trickled name known,
World
underfoot retired frown, (5)
Sight
of the cremation ground,
Floated
before life cry resound,
The
career, post, and offices remind,
Nameplate
designation rewind, (6)
Hundreds
of guest officers lot,
Chatted
queued for time effort,
Mattered
meetings proceeding,
copy
circulated time exceeding, (7)
A
signature, name designation,
Empowers
order, obeys motion,
Simple
a nameplate designation,
Enough
to circulate order warn, (viii)
Where
am I on a bed, name lost,
Retired
in life hanged boot post,
Lost
high position, status ivory,
Human
life flashback, memory, (9)
Worn-out
signboard wooden tilt,
In
front of the house, lifetime enlist,
Alive
thanked survived an accident,
God's
grace life refasten resident, (10)
Glittering
brass letters, a board,
Back
home, cherish second odd,
I moved
subconsciously out back,
Nameplate
invites me to the track, (11)
The
thin line between life and death,
Nameplate,
adds Late at length,
My
bedroom bed engrossed felt,
Lifetime
a name ceremony dealt,(12)
Added
degree, title position hell,
Twilight
Years nameplate derail,
Remember,
generation after love,
Ever
nameplate matches above, (13)
A
unique unbiased conclusion crept in,
Slept
on my bed, prayed a lot, wept,
Fortunate
million lives nameless,
Nameplate
to namesake baseless, (14)
Neither
recorded recognized stay,
I was
praying Nameplate dismay,
It
carries my identity, the world knows,
Minus a
nameplate never to bow. (15)
