An Epic Confusion Poem by Shouvik Roy

My heart is a hare
And my mind is a tortoise,
When she slows down,
he takes the lead.
And then follows an epic confusion,
As I see an animal
Dancing on my eyes,
Half hare half tortoise, for
My mind and heart in me,
Creates an enigma
Of perplexed affairs;
Now he slows down and
she takes the lead,
And the circle goes on and on…
But she should have known,
That the hare and tortoise are
Both long dead,
Breathing is just me,
Confused I may seem to her,
With the tortoise and the hare's fur,
Wish she should have known,
I wanted to stay confused with her…
