Corporate life is sometimes hard sometimes easy - sometimes fraught with danger and sometimes a laugh a minute... Here are some poems and illustrations inspired by corporate life...
*15 Minute Break *
They were once out in the passageway
Now they’re out on the street
In all kinds of weather
Enduring cold and heat
It’s like they have run away
But didn’t get far
They need to be here
For the semblance
Of a conference
For the gossip and the news
Discuss the day’s strategy
And sometimes new shoes
But mostly they’re here
(and the truth really sticks)
Because they are slaves to
Their nicotine fix.

...wit and insight on corporate ‘life’ through poetic wisdom...
...a wonderfully put together compendium of all the corporate nuances that delight, destroy, delude and dress the dreams of all we office dwellers... Rohini Sunderam’s wit and insight dances through these pages, encapsulating the fleeting mirages that pass for ‘life’ in Corporate City... pithy, acerbic, retrospective and amusing in turn... much to be enjoyed...

Well done Rohini, and should be read by everyone.

The author is articulate and choice words conjure up scenarios and situations that many office employees across the globe can easily relate to. Capturing the dark with the light, the contrasts, the irony, insights in to the obvious and the subtle strains with skilled finesse. One would think it a deep and somewhat complex subject to handle, yet Rohini has done it with ease.

If you've ever worked in the corporate world, you will certainly relate to these cute little poems about living the office life with all its falsities and hypocrisies.
