One thing

They say (and I hear):
you've got to be
just a thing
one horse is a horse
while a herd is horses
and each is one.

Convergence (pejorative
word) is the fate of all
the thing(s), even the 
allthings (nature/univer(se)/
g(o)d) have to be of
a moniker
picked or given.

What, then, shall be
my name
and where will
I find it (birth certifi
able security card(holder)
number eleven and others).

Choices, don't we all;
decid[u-us] trees say
con, if, err; it pays to
be green but it takes 
a one to be.
