Yes, maybe it would be better -
"Property names must be associated with a schema. This can
be done by qualifying the element names with a namespace
prefix to unambiguously connect the property definition with
the corresponding RDF schema or by declaring a default
namespace as specified in [NAMESPACES]."
A Property Name must have a home
It's qualified, as you must know
By a prefix for some good schema
Or its namespace will be a default.
You're on to something, Rick!
(With apologies to any real poets).
