Working Up

by Dwayne Phillips

All things don’t happen automatically by automaton. Some special person does the work.

Someone has to type the words

Someone has to stand in front of the classroom

Someone has to carry champagne to the table

Someone has to crack the eggs

As much as we wish it to be different in this world of 2019, some person has to actually do something for all this wonderful-ness to happen. Cherish that person. They aren’t a cog in the machine. They show up everyday, smile, and do the work.
