Commitment To Excellence

It demands
That you must be crushed like rock to sand
To a fine refinement
To the highest pressures that make that glittering
Diamond
In the dark

It does not demand an explanation of who
Gets the credit
In the limelight

You watch, it is enough that everything is
Done

And now, the glitter lights for everyone.
