The Dual Identity Of The Flash Poem by Kumbirai Thierry Nhamo

The Flash, he runs so swift and strong,
But his identity, it's been a lifelong con,
Two sides of him, a hero and a man,
A dual identity, he tries to understand.

By day, he's Barry Allen, a forensic scientist,
But at night, a superhero, he can't resist,
To save the world, to right the wrong,
The Flash, he's powerful, he's where he belongs.

But with each step, he feels the weight,
Of his different lives, it's hard to separate,
The man and the hero, they're intertwined,
Who is he when they're so combined?

Though he tries to keep them apart,
Both sides of him, they have his heart,
The Flash and Barry, two halves of a whole,
A dual identity, one man on a mission to console.

So he runs and he saves, he works and he fights,
Both sides of him, they're his guiding lights,
A man of two worlds, a hero of two names,
The Flash, and his alter ego, they are one and the same.
