Analysis of The Journey



Early in the morning,
everybody is busy,
rushing down from compartments,
motions are like mechanical instruments.

They are designed for
same drudgery of works.
Few of them having good growth.
Few are little bit sloth.

They come here
with full of vigor, energy,
accomplish their duties,
flourishing according to their abilities.

In the evening they return.
They are fatigue, pale,
trudging towards their destination.
It is their motion of elimination.

It is the journey
to their homes.
They return to the same place,
to get ultimate peace.
