The Morality Plays V Amanda Hall

The Morality Plays V: Busy Bees In the fifth of ten Classical Dialogues, Industry and Sloth preside over a homemaker's kitchen in which the industrious beekeeper is harassed by her neighbor, of fashionable debt-spending patterns. With aphoristic quips in envelope-rhymed and blank verse, the Virtue and Vice remark upon the situation: Should one fired from her job and in a financial bind be granted a job by the homemaker of opposite approach to skill-development and earning a living? The Chorus of Furies poses the Conflict and Resolution, in Strophe, Antistrophe and Epode.
