Traffic

I am participating in National Poetry Writing Month 2019. 30 Poems in 30 Days is the target.

The Day 8 Prompt for #NaPoWriMo is to think about the argot of a particular job or profession, and see how you can incorporate it into a metaphor that governs or drives your poem. 

I decided to go with the frequently used jargon in corporate sector - Traffic, and brush it with a touch of romanticism.

let us be stuck in traffic

and the hours just speed by

may all routes be shut down

we're in no hurry to fly

amidst all the disturbances

our eyes would never lie

the world might come to a standstill

but, we're in no hurry to fly
