Roll Call
Society requires us, on a normal day,
to flux between several roles:
driver maid cook
model influencer
reporter journalist publisher and pundit
a comedian and artist reader writer
parent spouse sibling child
historian therapist banker
grocery clerk epidemiologist
archivist teacher student activist thinker
worker doer fixer…
I’m just touching the iceberg’s tip–
grateful for this one space
where we can be almost anything.
