The Beginner
The brevity of the daytime
Can be felt in the city streets
Where employees walk in a certain speed
Calling it the "rush hour".
A beginner enters the competitive crowd
And gets immediately humbled
By the schedules, tasks and follow ups
Being spoken out so loud
That they make room in his mind,
Pushing his confidence a little too far
To be able to immediately find.
He takes a seat, takes a breather,
And watches two butterflies
Trapped in the midst of the functionality,
And where one succeeds through stampede,
He lets the other one breathe
By freeing it from the conundrum
As he resumes his journey
Down the trajectory street.
