A name from birth
so much disliked.
A growth inhibitor;
the thorn that spiked.
A name from birth
not of ones choosing,
and therein lies
a life of losing.
A name from birth;
a crippling shackle.
The first words said,
one has to tackle.
A name from birth
so cruelly given,
by one half mad,
post-natally driven.
A name from birth;
a real non-starter.
A nickname sought,
by one much smarter.
A name from birth
on a certificate shown,
until changed by deed poll.
or a marital scroll.
