Courage – Ben Frazer

C O U R A G E

By Ben Frazer

Civil disobedience
Portrays a sense of continence,
Which even the strongest must respect,
For the muscle doesn’t work without the mind,
The one with the brain leaves the brawn behind.
To take a violent man, and look him in the eye,
Takes a courage that no one can deny.
To then offer this man a hand,
And let him know you understand,
Is the final fatal blow,
That only the strongest can bestow.
