Bindu Borle - A day in the office

Gray, white, gray white
Cabins and rooms and a division within
Unfamiliar faces, chaos everywhere
Languid souls striving for survival
Routine calls, unlimited excuses, nagging calls
Fast moves with slow pace
A feeling of uncertainty.
A perpetual fear of the pink slip
It is haunting the mind endlessly.
Nausea, work pressure and monotonous schedule
Each day drags on…
For a new tomorrow
Attendance register, absence and late comings
A hard day ahead
Survival of the fittest in this jungle
Back-biting, rumors, gossip and office romance
Endless cups of coffee and rounds of cigarettes
The evening has set in.
The day ends for some
Its time to leave the cabins and rooms
Gray, white, gray and white
