Today V

Today,
he started the day
in dangerous mood.
Steely his stare across,
closed the door behind,
off he took for the other side.

In heavy, bumper to bumper traffic,
thinking of what he left behind,
nervous, anxious of what he'll find.
Looked for a map, he found one...
Searched for a short cut, he found none...
John Smith, risk taker, stuck in a jam!

Today,
as the day started,
he crossed to the other side.
An eternity to get there, get there he did!
And, he was ditched; the other side wasn't in!
Back to before; sadly, he rings the bell of the next door...
