the ant farm

you can only stare
at a goldfish
for so long.
swimming in circles
looking up
when a hand
comes near,
not unlike an office worker,
in the elevator
going up, or down.
sitting at his desk for
thirty years,
or an ant
pushing
through the paths
of his ant farm, going
nowhere,
it's a reminder
of the struggle that life is,
and the boredom that
we all share.
