Long Drive Home Poem by Deluke Muwanigwa

I wrote the poem 'Traffic Traffic Traffic Jams', inspired by the poem 'Long Drive Home', by the poet Deluke Muwanigwa and dedicated to the poet Deluke Muwanigwa.

I wrote the poem 'Long Tiring Terrible City Commutes Daily Done', inspired by the poem 'Long Drive Home', by the poet Deluke Muwanigwa and dedicated to the poet Deluke Muwanigwa.

I have in the past done these tiring terrible commutes daily, once I lived on the European side of the Bosporus in Istanbul and worked on the Asian side of the city. Sometimes 2 hours or more getting home in traffic jam places, beautiful views being a transcontinental, but little time left after work. I have suffered long commutes in several jobs in different places, it becomes a grind.

To live so far from work, separated by heavy rush hour traffic, every night going home is not wise, but economics plays a part in locations, nor is it easy to move to suitable houses in suitable locations. There is a saying in Indonesia, 'a happy man lives in 5 minutes walking time from work'. It solves many problems.

The warmth of being back home with mambokatdi and Maltese poodle...that makes life much easier and happier forgetting all the tiring job...That is also important for a healthy life. Well presented the topic metaphorically.
