Agree
by Karen Case
(Inspired by a meeting agenda.)
It’s there, on the paper,
Agree.
It’s in the plan,
Agree.
You must agree
on strategies and goals.
There is no place for discussion
or disagreement.
They all say:
“Diversify.
Think outside the box.
Be yourself.”
But only if you
diversify within their expectations.
Only if your box
fits in theirs.
Only if the real you
agrees with them.
There is no time
for different opinions.
Please just stick to the schedule.
You must agree.
