I'm a conundrum. Or an enigma. I forget which. ~James A. Owens
Am I a conundrum
or am I an enigma?
You told me once
long ago, but now
I forget which,
and why should I
let your fatuous words
define me?
Conundrum and enigma
are synonymous, or so
Thesaurus tells me,
and what does that
really make me;
a tricky incongruity
or a vexing oddity?
I think I shall define
myself without your
metaphoric mediocrity
and just declare myself
a mystifying ambiguity
and your tempestuous
kerfuffle!
