I am the duffer,
In the realm of intellect,
Endlessly burdened.
I am the duffer,
A murmur
I caught it from society's lips,
softly whispering,
Echoing in my ears,
I am the duffer.
On the workplace,
Fulfilling my obligations,
My colleagues surrounded me,
Murmuring, "The boss knows,
This man is a duffer."
I sensed, through
Glances and gestures,
what they implied,
I am the duffer.
I pondered the trees,
Wondering why they exist,
What purpose they serve;
They proclaimed clearly,
In the fresh air,
But I couldn't grasp it,
As I know,
I am the duffer.
The universe speaks a language,
Communicating with all,
Yet I remain lost,
For I don’t understand
Because, I am the duffer.
The flowers sing sweetly,
The birds  twirl and sway,
The monkeys play games among the trees,
But I can’t decipher it,
Because,
I am a duffer.
