To Live, to Fly- Diona Humes-Jamison

Odes never address the working man
Lord knows, of all people, he deserves one.
Working overtime and can still lend a hand
All work and no play, when does he get to have fun?
Maybe you're a big time corporate exec:
Swiftly passing judgement,
But won't cut the right check.
Guess the more pressing issue was the dollars unspent.
No budget for non necessities, paycheck to paycheck.
Conflict after conflict, yes, this was his life.
When everyone's your competition and it's all neck and neck,
Do you know what it's like?
To work, to strive, to live, to fly;
There's no other code I'd rather live by.
