Birth of Gresham’s law: Bad Drives Good from Circulation.

Nobody would show disrespect
And walk away from a
Good leader.
But if “jokers and fools”
To use the phrase of one
Great scholar, an authority and
Specialist on the father of nation
And also an architect of modern India
Constantly surround the chief manager
With out doing their work
Like Chorus dancers in a story less film
And keep away the good
By poisoning the leadership
Inventing fictious tales, and
Indulging in character assassination,
The good becomes bad very easily
In the eyes of the CEO.
The bad and ugly, encouraged by this ‘work’
In the company of some ‘select’
Residual good, but totally
Devoid of ethics and justice
More treacherous and mean than the bad
Assume a larger than life image,
And define the parameters of
Efficiency and productivity
And preach sermons
This is how the bad drives away good from circulation,
And Gresham’s law is thus born .


In a liberalized, globalized
Information based, well connected
Global village, global customers
Would know
Who is good, who is bad?
Which commodity has become rotten?
And beyond redemption
Time alone will reveal
And heal the wound inflicted
Deep into the heart of the innocent
And hardworking
Abandoning family at far off places
