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
