It's been a while.

Since I last posted anything. So here's something totally different to everything else I've posted. - But just as cheery xD

Traffic

I'm stuck in the car,
It feels like an oven,
And the radio's bust,
But it's not very far to go, they say.

I'm looking outside,
Through oven doors,
And my head throbs,
Thanks to this car ride, I'd say.

I'm sick and tired,
Almost literally,
The traffic's relentless,
But this is his reality, he'd say.

Him staring forward,
Now straight ahead,
Greasy hands held tight,
"It's a stepping stone", he'd said.

With such confidence,
Almost convincing,
Sat in the hamster wheel,
Seeking what is missing, some day.

Car drifting round,
The same old circuit,
Never ceases, never stops,
He's better than this town, he'd say.

Better than this,
Built for a purpose,
Not the same old routine,
Without a single moment of bliss, all day.

Glued to his car,
With a sweaty determination,
That says to himself over and over,
"It's not very far to go, I'd say."
