If this question is from the poem 'Imagination' by George Bernard Shaw, then I've the answer!

By the phrase 'daily grind" the poet meant the monotony and boredom of the daily life.
The poet used his imagination to travel to different places. Once he was a pirate sailing on a ship, while in the next moment he was a bold cowboy in the ranches. His imagination is very strong that helped him transcend all boundaries.

Answer 2

Answer:

In the poem Imagination, the poet gets lost in the world of fantasy by reading books. Books makes the poet's dull, harsh days (Daily Grind) better. While reading, he would become so engrossed in it that he would forget the hard and dull day.
