Any Other Nname? comic poem no 393 by Angela Lansbury

 Chocolate by another name

I wonder would it taste the same?

Excreta by another name

I wonder, would it smell the same?


Yet Marilyn, they changed her name

Madonna, would she sell the same?

The PR team, are they to blame?

New married name? What a shame 


Don't judge a book by its cover

Cover designer, send another

Interior design, why bother? 

A birthday suit to suit your lover


A poem by another name

Would it attract more

Or just the same?

How long can we play this game?


Sometimes it's right, sometimes its wrong

Sometimes the singer sells the song

Sometimes it yo-yos, yeah, ding dong

Arctic? Nirvana? Or Hong Kong?


Can you renew a famed dictator?

Who's the manager, who's the waiter?

Would my name change change my fate? Or

Should I wait? And change it - later!.
