Life is just like Business

Life like a business
has a beginning
and an end.
Birth, growth
and senescence.

The same rules apply.
Be honest,
treasure others,
work together,
for the common good.

And remember that life is
a journey
and not a destination,
and business is a way
to do good
make a profit
but also to nurture the
human soul
the Invisible hand

Business Travel

This poem is dedicated to those of you who partake in the joys of business travel...

Business Travel

Today I caught the red eye
Last week I caught the red eye
Last month I caught the red eye

I hate the red eye!

why can't the meetings
start at 11 instead of 8?
I would not get up early
and still
wouldn't be late

One hotel morphs
into another hotel
airport
looks like airport
the boredom is inane

I hate hotels!

why can't we all live together
and just walk to the meetings?
Time spent on traveling
would be spent on greetings

the only redeeming thing
is the people
the you's and me's
infinite
in variety
