The traffic is too loud today
The light too bright
The hustle and bustle too much.
I’m afraid to go out there
I’m afraid to be an ant.
I don’t feel I can merge with the line
There’s never enough time.
Keep on the move to prove.
To prove what ?
That I am the busiest ant?
That I can carry more than my own weight?
Maybe I can
But today I can’t.
Today I’m not an ant.
