Irony

He wanders through a land,
with nothing inspring in his journey.
He incessantly looks for motivation,
to make his journey joyous and meaningful.

He reaches a city and meets some people
The people in the city look at the wanderer,
their eyes are filled with admiration for him,
for the journey he has made thusfar.

He hears their adulations about his motivation,
for having made an inspiring journey thusfar.
In masses they throng and want him to speak about motivation,
to make their journey inspiring like his.

The wanderer smiles and passes on without saying a word
for he knows what z he going through..
But people in the city think they get the message and inspiration.

I very much liked ur ironic paragraphs :)
I think it's somewhat magical the way we find inspiration in others or in their ways, especially when they don't do it themselves... I think in a way it makes us all everything, and inspired one and the inspiring one :) quite circular :)
