Social networks on the intranet

Credit: Luc Legay

Here’s a Q: How come we don’t have a social network (like an intranet Facebook or Orkut) inside these big offices? Wouldn’t it be really cool to not have to check in our personalities at the door and actually have some really awesome (and albeitedly, hot-headed sometimes) discussions on our pet passions with other employees. I would love to meet other employees who think Hakkinen and not Schumacher was the real king of the tracks or whether Tupac or Biggie really nailed words over beats. These would be the real rock of relationships in the office. Wouldn’t it be it the best cross-functional (my first cardinal sin on this blog of using jargon) public discussions we could have on products or otherwise. Wouldn’t it be cool if one of the product ideas came out from one of these discussions?Anyone from HR listening ?

The only thing we have is a directory where there is one line which asks “Interests”. Atleast so far no one has written “Internal Audit” yet

One verse, so many curses

Ink fills this page
As I lay my rhyme
Like my dreams six feet deep
And the words sublime
Letter and cipher,
They foolhardedly mix
Both combine to give me my deadly fix.
To form a melody, a note or a vocal crime
People look down at me now cos I crossed the line
Dissing all the people who hate me through
Claustrophobic minds, let me break you fool
With my words, my rhythm, let the next verse be
A poignant phrase, retribution for all the pain I see
I’ll break you bitch and I’ll make you mine
Fill your mind up with all this toxic waste and grime
I’ll hurt, I’ll weep cos this ain’t the way
To make this agony and pain escape
A hole in my soul I could hold it back
But It’s better when I lay it all out in black
And white,
A destiny denied
I hate my guts, bitch, I wanna make you mine
But I look down at my hands and flip
Cos of these words flowing out of my fingertips
A song, just a single verse without a heed
Blood red clotted gums cos I grit my teeth
They bleed. Blood or venom, it’s all  I need
Satisfy this greed…
Let my soul sink low
Cos I’m never ever gonna get through heaven’s door
Cos U say my words will shock and they offend
It’s a sin for which this is no amends
But you fool, For every verse and curse I pen
It’s backed by a reality that you can’t defend
You think I exaggerate all I feel
Do i look like am using this for my feed?
I put the pen down now. The pain fades away
So many things that I have to say
But the words combine. Metaphors divine
And the meaning that I feel slinks into the night
Once again, I swear I’ll chase that high
When that happens, I’ll be back to fight.

Memories

Dedicated to someone I loved. The same person I hate for making me the way I am today ! Love ya Belle !!! And miss ya like crazy !!!

Looking up to the skies , I catch my breath
Memories wash over me with the shit you said
“I’ll be with you, just look up and see
A thousand million stars shining out through me”
I look up to the stars and see your face
See the spite, the mockery and disgrace
You left me bitch and turned away
You left me alone like i could survive this phase
I rot alone, without you here
But like an old motherfucker, I persevere
To see that there’s a brighter way for me
Yeah Bitch ! That’s the way I’ve broken down to be
Just hope for the future, just hope and pray
On my knees, eyes closed, just take me away

I failed my dreams, I failed my love
I failed all those bitches who just called me out
Trying to smile but this explodes once more
Like a gushing motherfucker, like the pain I bore
From my mouth, from my guts,
The bloods seeps to my chest, on my nuts
Girl ! I spit this here, and I spit it now
I said there’s nothing in this world that I can’t live without
Aint that the truth girl, cos you’re not here
And that’s the only true nightmare I fear

Break me

Shit hits the fan, there’s no avoiding it
The acid in my gut catalyzing it
So pissed off, I just wanna spit my verse
Before the venom destroys like a hateful curse
My soul, A pain so deep it mellows
A spell so strong, not a breeze a bellow
Wanna relax, just get off this stress
But this muthafucka world won’t let me get this off my chest
“Why you like this?” “Dont’ you care or what”
Bitch ! There is nothing that I can’t live without

Except you like a addict I cant bear to see
A life without you fuckin’ taunting me
A smile, a laugh, a shake of your head
Strut away leaving me to catch my breath
One day, someday, I’ll walk away
Into the death’s open arms and play it straight
Till then , until then I’ll live with it
Waiting to see what you fuckin’ break me with
Your tears, your stories or your delightful smile
Or your little fucked up brain and your crazy lies.

I’m sick with it, too ill to bear
A hungry heart, a little slow to care
Till this shit breaks off into my veins,
Like poisoned blood that exacerbates the pain
Till it kills me. Like a bullet to my head
Till I realize that I am so far dead
Gonna keep on movin’, cos I can see the prize
A breakaway of my resolve in your pitch black eyes
