Work Day

Here catch a glimpse sure:
Office hours kills time;
KPI allure,
Profit for work chimes.


Work day nine to five:
Meetings and sales calls;
Business goals arrive,
Make money install.


See people play games:
Drive away panic;
Bitter taste of gall,
Office politics.


Cliques of same fancy:
Greedy feuds confront;
Bleed cotton candy,
Noisy back and front.


Be wary of lies:
Half truths play poker;
Good and ugly  cries,
Wild card and joker.


Be truly aware:
Fake friends and fake takes;
Tumble fumbles cares,
Disturbia burns break.


Never a dull day:
Fight or flight claims fake;
Conflicts now frame sway,
Sly motives burn stake.
