To run a race - fairy tale
For a turtle it is difficult
to win a running game.
But to run against a hare
is for a turtle certainly not a shame.
Normally it takes a turtle
a day to run his race,
while the hare uses a sixth
of the time in space.
But sometimes a fast hare
runs a dead end bet,
and instead it will be the turtle,
who wins for choice without regret.
So, it is better to run your own race
in life, because your own pace hurdles
to a more certain survive.
