The World Grinds On: A Play in One Scene
This happened a few days ago, but I keep thinking about it, so. Have a short play!
Scene: A Starbucks.
[Woman ahead of me approaches the counter with a sandwich in hand.]
WOMAN: Can I also get a latte and one of the blueberry muffins?
EMPLOYEE: My, someone’s hungry! [Calls the drink, gets the pastry.]
[Man behind me approaches the counter with a sandwich and a banana in hand.]
MAN: Can I also get a latte and a slice of lemon loaf?
EMPLOYEE: Sure thing! [Calls the drink, gets the pastry.]
…oh, SOCIETY.
