If You Die At Work

If you die at work An email will be sent If they know you You are referred to as beloved I too want to beloved I wonder, who do I have to know to be beloved? I too want a work e-mail celebrating my life! We are never e-mailed if an employee quits or is fired I used to think that the end of a relationship was not like a death It did not mean the person was dead – there was still a chance To see that person – maybe – one day in the future Just like an Adele breakup song – bittersweet – but very very possible But it is like a death – just like someone quitting or being fired Where is the e-mail? Once in a great while, I will see an ex-employee at a Burger-Fi or a Wawa And I will tell them -- they are beloved.
