Going Nowhere

Purchase a flight on an airplane,
Or wait to catch the next railway train.
On the highway driving the car,
Has man really sojourn far?
Life’s cargo carried on a truck,
Are Individual still running out of luck?
Taking a cruise on a luxury ship,
Can a person ever control their lips?
Space tour to the moon by rocket,
Is mankind’s life still way out of socket?
Much questioning of ones transportation,
Does man have the time for a love relation?
Numberless are in the very same boat,
Trying hard to stay afloat.
Technology is running in full force,
Pushing the fast life in a percussion course.
So many ways of living one try,
Nevertheless the same old view is passing them by.
Who is paying for this fare? 
Voyage that leads to,
Nowhere-
