Waiting...
.
.
.
.
Waiting on responses
stuck in corporate purgatory,
trying to be proactive
chasing, typing, still stuck...
.
.
.
.
Waiting...
.
.
.
.
Trying to look busy
racked with corporate guilt,
I promise I am working
yet there's nothing to do, still...
.
.
.
.
Waiting...
.
.
.
.
Was it always this way
for the bureaucrats old,
time immaterial
whilst they ponder, just...
.
.
.
.
Waiting...
.
.
.
.
Is it just the curse
of the modern worker,
programs to download,
oh look another meeting, more...
.
.
.
.
Waiting...
.
.
.
.
A whole day passed
watching the clock,
longing staring
an age old office romance.
.
.
please no more
.
.
Waiting.
