The Poetry: Echoes

1. THE STRONG MAN

The Sun glows up again and here's another bright day,
But our man runs to the office with a high migraine,
Office files accumulating, sort of never leaving his desk,
He takes all his leftover files home,
Always trying to be the "best"
His wife keeps breaking dishes, screaming, " Just get some rest!"
"Just 10 years more! Then there lies my retirement plan
Kids would be settling, and from this duty, I'll be left"

The Sun glows up again and there's another bright day,
But our man runs to the office with a high migraine,
Always getting looks from the employees past his desk,
Office files accumulating, sort of never leaving his desk,
He takes all his leftover files home,
Always trying to be the "best"
Till his chest aches sharply,
"Go to some doctor!" She satirically said, knowing he would never leave his house once he come back

He always keeps thinking, "This woman has gone mad."
He keeps going and going till his chest aches again,
The Doctor sighed, looking at the reports, "Only 5 months left..."
He tried finding some human error in it, forgetting it is the machine that has made
He smiles as he finds it true "But, I've been the strong man, I'll get through."

The Sun glows up again and here's another bright day,
But our boy runs to the office with a slight migraine,
Office files accumulating, sort of never leaving his desk,
His wife keeps breaking dishes screaming, "Just get some rest!"
"Just 10 years more! Then there lies my retirement plan,
Kids would be settling and from this duty, I'll be left. "
