Take It Like A Man
I wrote this in November 1979 when I was teaching English Composition and Literature to adults at Manna Bible Institute in Philadelphia. This was written to a particular student who whined about his work. Not sure it was delivered, though. 🙂
Take It Like A Man
By Sharon L. Bratcher
You didn’t meet your assignment.
You say that I don’t understand.
But there are standards to be kept.
Don’t complain, take it like a man.
You promised me three late papers.
Three deadlines passed – now you can
Take the appropriate judgement.
Don’t complain–take it like a man.
I care about you and love you.
Without standards, you would not gain.
Fulfill your responsibilities!
Take it like a man – do not complain!
[Phil. 2:14 – “[Do all things without murmurings and disputings.”]
