A network of dependencies


Each of us is carried through this life 
By a support system, 
 Though it may be virtually invisible 
To those whom it carries: 
There’s so much we depend upon — 
Water, electricity, 
 Our food, our fuel, the internet, 
Our roads, and the way the traffic moves — 
All built, delivered, or established 
By group efforts of folks we rarely see or know, 
Working together to meet the needs of many; 
A network of dependencies.
