Written back when I dwelt in corporate trenches.

Business Poetry 101

Listen,
We strategists need trends, 
Data telling us where we stand. 
Then you'll require our touch. 
Without pictures, we're flying blind. 
We cannot simply adhere to "The 
Way We Did It Before"—that's
Corporate death, corporate
Deafness.

Right
Equals a certain point in 
Space and Time. Standing
In place, in Space, without
Consideration of Time
Will make us
Wrong.

Therefore
We're desperate! Quick! Give
Us data, our picture for
Where Everything's At, 
So we can tell you 
Where Everything's Going.
Wherefore...

That's why we're bugging you.
If we can get that,
Our Archimedean Place To Stand
Will have arrived, and 
We will move the world.
