Nominative Determinism
Dammerung Dasching:
A girl with one hell of a heck of a name !
It’s hardly her fault, of course,
She didn’t choose it –
Her thunderbolt handle is barely her blame –
In fact, it’s absurd,
But her parents once heard
Of the power a moniker has on its wearer,
And children so labelled
Were feted and fabled,
Endorsing their promise upon their proud bearer.
And so she became
An incentive for fame,
Did Dammerung Dasching – the girl in the frame.
For nobody ordin’ry gets to be called that –
She’s in for a lifetime of being enthralled-at
It’s hardly her fault, of course,
She didn’t choose it,
But hers is the force,
And she cannot refuse it.
The muses are summoned,
The devils the same:
Now they are the players and she is the game –
With a flash and a flame
From a passionate dame,
She’s Dammerung Dasching – the girl with the name.
