His paths are riddled with
craters, thorns, and gravels
piercing his skin under his feet.
He has to tread long
distances to reach the
destination barefooted
to earn his bread and butter.
Excruciating pain
quite unbearable
made him weep for hours
and he got
disillusioned with life.
His long walks reminded one of
punishment on fire in the
hell
or sinner thrown into the frying
pan
literally roasting alive.
He couldn’t avoid the journey
there’re no other paths left
and his daily walks
enabled him accustom
with pain
made him impervious
to pain.
Gone are the days of
excruciating unbearable
pain now
daily sufferings
transformed into a painless
odyssey.
