Lie Objects

A lie is only anything
That only exists as its names

A myth is only anything
A fiction only anything

A god is only anything
The same the same the same the same

Before going too far this way
Try to recall how many names

Began as actual labels
And then how many stayed that way

A minority admit it
So many more lost referents

Had their referents stripped by death
Or shuffled away for new ones

The whole unstable edifice
Of a mostly pointless deixis

So that most names only make sense
As only their own existence
