A ship that got stuck
In Suez Canal resulted
In losses which are
Beyond imagination.
Waiting ships and
Loss of fuel burned
Perished goods adding
To direct losses as well.
Major losses from
Undelivered goods
To continents located
In both east and west.
Traffic jams in city
Result in losses too
Productive time lost
Engines running idle.
Uncoordinated lights
Roads in constant repair
Irresponsible driving
Cause losses unwanted.
Enormous such losses
Can be avoided easily
By simple adjustments
In this technological world.

I would like to translate this poem
I remember such a container ship, it's so hards tearing through the Suez Canal as it's so narrow and today's ships so long and wide. But it's humanities desire for wanting more that's the real cause.
