Playing, this Name~Game
As awareness wanes
What are names?
Just oh~so plain
Nothing, but claims
For ödd~mortal planes
Or flickering finite flames
And all end with Cartesian pain
Whenever playing, this Name~Game
Got caught in a coma, awakening in Maine
Like crazy lazy legs, and so insane & lame
When old Brand Names' ways complain
And brand Ñü∿Ways learn how to tame
My Upside~Down, Inside~Out: not sane
Then Transcending Infinity’s doorframe
Kamikaze! Crash landing like aeroplane
Sharp shrapnel making messes & maims
Survive somehow, my character’s a main
Shotgun shinigami ~ Whö then, I became
& now my personal growth is why I train
Either way ~ I Am – §till – all the same
Because survivor’s guilt to be my bane
Asked for my thoughts & so I exclaim
“Shoulda just took a bullet...train!”

Whenever playing, this Name~Game
Abel who came to cut Columbian cocaine
With father's "Hand Me Downs" fame
& whatever else taken to entertain
An even crazier brain ~ my dame
& eyes maintain when killing Cain
My brother, with mother’s surname;
Changing names and becoming Blaine
A Runner~Punisher now following blame
Monster Masquerade ~ faceted façades feign
The Church, Baal's portrait: same picture frame
High, in Shy Violet sky ~ featherless red crane
Hawkeye scope, lens flare ~ snipers take aim
Holy blood ~ stained glass window panes
Feels familiar ~ Flow forming shame
My self loathing pouring like rain
Playing, this Name~Game
As awareness wanes
What are names?
Just oh~so plain
Nothing, but claims
For ödd~mortal planes
Or flickering finite flames
And all end in Cartesian pain;
Tired of playing, this Name~Game
[10 January 2024 Revision]
Playing, this Name~Game
My awareness wanes
What are names?
Tradition so plain
& nothing but a claim
For an öDD~mortal plane
Or a flickering finite flame
& all ending in Cartesian pain
When I Am playing this Name~Game
Got caught in a coma, awakening in Maine
Crazy & like lazy legs, insane & lame
As those old Brand Names' complain
About brand ñü∿Ways, learning to tame
My Upside~Down, Inside~Out, not so sane
When Transcending Infinity’s doorframe
Kamikaze! Crash landing, like aeroplane
Sharp shrapnel making messes and maims
Survived somehow, my character’s a main
A shotgun shinigami, Whö I then became
Now, my personal growth, be why I train
Either way I Am & –§till– all the same
Because survivor’s guilt, to be my bane
Asking for my thoughts, then I exclaim
“Should of just took the bullet...train”
Playing, this Name~Game
My awareness wanes
What are names?
Tradition so plain
& nothing but a claim
For an öDD~mortal plane
Or a flickering finite flame
& all ending in Cartesian pain
When I Am playing this Name~Game
Abel who came to cut Columbian cocaine
With father's "Hand Me Downs" fame
Whatever else taken to entertain
An even crazier brain of my dame
& eyes maintain when killing Cain
My brother, with mother’s surname;
Changing names, then becoming Blaine
A Runner~Punisher now following blame
Monster Masquerade, faceted façades feign
The Church, Baal's portrait: same picture frame
High, in Shy Violet sky ~ featherless red crane
Hawkeye scope, lens flare ~ snipers take aim
Holy blood ~ stained glass window panes
Feels familiar ~ Flow forming shame
My self loathing pouring like rain
Playing, this Name~Game
My awareness wanes
What are names?
Tradition so plain
& nothing but a claim
For an öDD~mortal plane
Or a flickering finite flame
& all ending in Cartesian pain;
So tired of playing this Name~Game
