THEY GREW TIRED

Some have much

Some have few

Some have nothing

In the end, those who are carrying "MUCH"

became weary and tired

mumbling - "HEAVY TIME, HEAVY TIME."

All heads became ASSORTED TOOLS!

...

The hall is wide and full of many long tables.

I saw that some tables are empty, some tables have a little food, and some have lots of food.

One man sat in front of a long table alone, and above the table was a whole pan filled with food. He was not touching it when people were watching, however, when no one's around, he ate all of it (the whole pan) in a hurry and he will only stop eating when somebody comes.

Another table had a little food on top of it. Nuns came in and they saw that's all they've got. They just took it, accepted whatever was on the table. They're already contented, make use of everything they found (preparing and cooking it) and shared it with their group.

Another group came, on the very back of the venue. It's crowded there. It's like a buffet. They seemed very happy there with their chattering voices. They're like feasting.

Later on, I went out and saw several people walking, coming out from the very end of the hall.

I saw one man carrying a heavy sack of cement, unable to walk smoothly along the way. He felt tired and weary. Next, one by one followed him as well, they all looked the same, all tired and weary. And all of them were aching and mumbling these words, "HEAVY TIME, HEAVY TIME."

However, the people I saw have strange heads. Their heads were all tools like in the form of hammer, chisel, and so on.

They walked wearily while saying "HEAVY TIME, HEAVY TIME", and a background music was playing, a sad song with the voice of a middle-aged man.
