"Toads"

#4. The literal term for the second toad, represents the comparison to the speaker. The speaker is going to keep on working instead of speaking his mind and telling his boss what kind of life he want, which includes not working for him. Being the second is the "inner" him that is preventing him to live the life he wants desperately, but will not get or try to get because of the inner self. He talks about the people he would want to be, which are the people the workd very little and have very little, but seem to be much happier than he is.
#5. The speaker is a angry, bitter, and reluctant to pursue the way of life he mentions to crave. This life is to live on less and still be happy, which is the problem with the life he has now. He is upset because he wants to live a happy life and not work as much as he does now. His attitude towards work is annoyed and anger because of the life he desires, but inner self denis to want. This is making him stay in the same mind-set he has been in and not changing his life around according to what he truley wants.
