The Elephant Trap

[vagabond]

When something pretends to be authentic
it’s a rabbit that grows up too slowly;
and everything goes too slowly,
and you ask yourself
—Should I grow up, yet,
between where the spirit enters
and leaves through the same door?
Or, am I more than my past
that gave birth to an anger
that fights, tooth and nail,
for my future,
my freedom,
and my Wile E. Coyote plots to escape it?

I like that it evokes thought (as was said before).

wild guesses about the meaning:

the rabbit growing up too slowly..
hmm but authentic rabbits grow up pretty fast.. so if you slow the process down too much you´d produce some monster-rabbit (the elephant? metaphor for over-thinking?).
so.. no, stay the road runner, feels the more authentic reaction to fighting or fleeing anger.
