Ex libris ... Identity

Today’s word is “ex libris” ... an inscription in or on book, to indicate the owner; bookplate. (Dictionary.com)

Identity
So simple in a book,
Ex libris to identify,
This is the book you own,
Your name proudly on the inside.

Not so easy with ideas,
To whom do they belong?
How did they come to be,
Are they weak or strong?

Who will claim the high ground,
Who says it’s really high?
We shout into the heavens,
Waiting for reply.
