Butchered Gratitude

I used to retain a sackful of gratitude for this company, 

but it failed to sustain it for itself. 

I recall how proudly and lovingly, 

I used colors to create my heart out 

on that chart paper, sadly the company, but 

splashed darkness on my hopes and dreams of many.

Most didn’t want to do mundane jobs

for this so-called great one, but they did, 

just learn and be there to grow, as was being told.

Its board has had and even has today,

widely popular people at the helm,

who worked and work hard for their own good,

perpetually ignoring mischief being played

right under their noses, while few admitted their 

lackluster in retaining clients and revenue.

Kick the shit out! 

I wonder how the hell can a company survive to operate that way.

To everyone’s surprise, when it lost work, 

it bluntly asked amazing and hard-working people 

to force resign and others to proceed on leave 

without pay.

What the heck! 

 

I recently realized that this great one

has had a repute of hiring, when in business and firing people when it’s out of it. 

What the ***k! Grrr!

I really wonder, how and why companies past and present,

have an urge to play hide and seek without even 

realizing their profound responsibility of being 

socially liable toward society, wherefrom men and women

reach to work for them and lead them to success.

Shockingly, this one wins an award for being most employment offering company, 

every year. 

Absurd! Ha! 

I used to love working for this company, 

but it failed to love me in return, 

and I lost respect for it, forever.

Nevertheless, I consoled myself and joyfully 

retained those colors within me, to pour out 

a colorful life for myself and all around me.
