Today’s Poem

Cororate Offsite

Hotel schmooze, you snooze, you lose,

coffee shop tennebrae and hop

to work on long tables of papers,

endless talk of how to work harder, smarter,

leaner, meaner.


Workout sweat togs wander halls

meandering grey crimson-striped looks

in mirrored walls unending,

salmon strips on lettuce beds,

suits and ties and shoes conferring,

joking, lurking,

softly ringing cell phones pinging,

smiles and sighs unheard,

undreaming.
