Second - Track I

The smart-looking interviewer who was taking my interview for the post of a technical writer said "if you get this job, you will be working under me."

Second-Track answered "Now that is an interesting proposition!!!"

The short interviewer was trying to get on to his chair, which was too high for him. He was literally jumping.

Second-Track queried "Do you want me to get a ladder for you?"

The other day J.K. Rowling said she may have to kill two characters in the last book of her Harry Potter series and obviously that meant Voldermont and Harry Potter. She added that all good things have to come to an end.

Second-Track wonders: Then what about God. Isn't it high time that HE came to an end?

I was reading Memoirs of a Geisha by Aurthur Golden and was reminded very strongly of the book Umrao Jan Ada by Mirza Ruswa (1905) and a movie of the same name by Muzzafar Ali (1981).

Second Track notices: Why was not Umrao Jan Ada an International best seller? Perhaps, Mirza Ruswa had a shade darker skin than Aurther Golden.

Corporate Jungle

This post contains small poems that describe in Orwellian style people in the Corporate World:

A Lamb’s Story

I was a naive lamb strutting around in the Forest
Thinking I knew the Forest, its cunning creatures and its ways
Until, I saw a pack of wolves
Who ate me, burped and walked away

_____________________________________

Snake Spews its Plot

Slither silently

Let them not know

Bite gently

Watch the venom spread

Let the victim writhe

I merely enjoy the scene

Peacock's Tale

I walk around in beauty and magnificience

I talk eloquent and attract everyone

I know how much you love me

I know you will never know

That I do not care

____________________________

Hyena's Last Laugh

I smile a pretty smile

I make you my friend

You step ahead of me

That is when I bite

And watch your death - your end

You will never know its me

Coz I will always have the last laugh

Dog's Laps

I will lick your feet neat

My Master sweet

I shall be there for you

And I shall be always true

A loyal slave

like me, you shall ne'er find

_____________________________________

Donkey Unburdens

I toil night and day

Yet, everybody takes my credit away

I take pains to please everyone

Carry their burden

When I need help

No one comes forward

I am all alone in the jungle

____________________________________

Owl's Rhapsody

I toil night and day

I care two hoots to what others say

I work my feathery ass away

I'm not anyone's favourite

Nor anyone's prey

I do my job, take my pay

Go home in time every single day

Trivia I

Who is Murphy.. I hate him. Had he not coined those damned laws, I would have!!

When you badly want something, you can be sure that you will never have it. With this in mind, if you desire for something that you do not actually want, then you surely will get it. In short, you do not have any right to want for anything. You will always get what you dislike, detest and hate. Its God's way of disposing ugly things and situations that he creates.
