Treading Water Poem by Sofia Kioroglou

Treading Water

Rating: 5.0


I am walking ahead and ahead
and still in the same place.
I am treading water
walking through a morass.
I think I am making progress
but I am stuck when I keep walking.

A nice and direct way to describe a state many, if not all, human beings find themselves in at some point in the course of their life. The poem certainly appears to the reader, in a quick and witty way. Nicely done.

This is a very frustrating state to find oneself in! An interesting philosophical quandry. I see the idea of progressing along a course that one knows has already completed, but unable to venture off in order to achieve progress. Thanks for sharing Sofia.
