Misguided Love (Poem)

There is an old saying

About chasing rabbits.

One at a time -

Or lose them all.

Some time ago,

I fell in love with the chase,

And pursued every rabbit that passed by,

So I lost them all.

What I claimed to want

Was an end to it,

But all I did was nurse it,

And start to chase rabbits that weren't there.

But now I am tired,

And my habit exposed.

Now I must rest,

Or forever fall victim to the chase.
