Ego Dissolution Ears and nerves sicken at the ever-creaking, Ever-upward ratchet of productivity: Management aghast when we push for a works council. We have failed to grasp the terminal paradox at the Heart of corporate ego dissolution: You are we, and we are you. Caricature commissioned when management buys out the Company portrays them as clownish dervishes: CCO now a grinning minstrel whom in life I knew as that Dour, ghoulish amalgam of Nurse Ratched and Miss Jean Brodie. ©Jan Peters/Solivagant Wisdom, 2026

Dyspepsia Ear-popping thundercrack splits Parking metre asunder outside Head Office, Punctuating the gravel-whine of beans Ground and whooshed to a caustic brew that Gurgles the day long through cranky bowel-bellied coworkers. Subsidiary bloat spun off from Tweedledum behemoths Insourcing the language services of a national telecoms provider. I’ll never forget the day when vanquished Employees were paraded through Head Office: their Stooped, resigned, crestfallen air – as if Yoked neck to neck in a coffle. ©Jan Peters/Solivagant Wisdom, 2026
