A Series of Work Haiku

Because art imitates life.

“Could’ve been a mail”
I shout at faceless zoom screens
As sprints limp onward.

Hey, who stole my time!?
My calendar gobbled it
Only sleep remains.

Can ‘we’ get this done?
If not, allow me to be
Passive-aggressive.

Here’s a farewell mail
From someone you’ve never met;
Delete and move on.

My inbox is full
Of Re: Re: Fwd: Urgent
And one food coupon.

Okay Google, find
Motivational quotes for my
Daily LinkedIn post.

Should I post beach pics
And pretend I was working?
Hashtag wanderlust.
