The Project Manager's Life 1

I have taken up my studies of ghazals again after a four-year hiatus and would like to share a sher from time to time with you.

I have stared collecting shers that can be applied to our job as project deliverers. I think the one that follows, by Sudarshan Faakir, describes a common situation where we have a client project manager overseeing, and at times complicating, our own work and passing judgment on it. Are the two positions incompatible?

Please forgive and correct mistakes I might make. Hindi and Urdu are a challenge for a non-Indian, especially when working with poetry.
