The Businessman

In a coffee shop's corner, a man did stand,

Lost in the labyrinth of his corporate land.

His voice, a thunder, deals and demands did convey,

As the espresso machine hummed, soft in the fray.

But as moments unfurled, a transformation took hold,

Ambitions like threads, in his psyche, unrolled.

He twitched and he trembled, his gaze lost in space,

Corporate armor shattered, revealing a fragile embrace.

In the midst of this chaos, a moment emerged,

Reality's grip, like a lifeline, converged.

Medication's quiet magic, a tether to his soul,

In the chaos, a flicker of clarity stole.

So let us remember, in life's frantic race,

To seek moments of clarity, a touch of grace.

For in the chaos we navigate, both you and I,

A tether to reality, at times, seems but a sigh.
