I spend my days...
Rolling boulders
'cross the terrain I call my life.
End over end they go
Some are as big as a house.
It's funny I should bother
There are smaller rocks to hurl
But pushing boulders
Is a show of strength...

I'm trying to move the world.

Move that world
And If I may, may I join you?
Working on our problems, either significant or lack of importance, is something we do everyday. But when we truly try to change something within; a world is moved.

Nicely said and succinctly, too. I like the irony in "smaller rocks to hurl".

Camus' "Sisyphus" is one of my favorite philosophical essays.
