My Lab

No fire extinguisher
No air curtain
No container for hazardous waste
Absolutely
No uninterrupted power supply
No shower for eyes
No fume hoods
No bio-safety cabinets.

I am at ease
With interrupted power
With fire
With polluted air
With hazardous waste
With all chemicals.

These are welcome things
In my lab.

I observe
Actions - reactions
Movements - comments
Smiles - eyetwists
Proximities - distances
Commands - demands
Correlations - connections
Anonymities - niceties
Calculations
And
What not.

This is a perfect lab for me
As I teach
HR,
Strategy
And
Organizational Behaviour.

I just need
Free expressions of thoughts.

This is just perfect setting
And
We all are
Perfect samples.
