Hard Won Poem by Kurt Philip Behm

Hard Won



We can all think
differently

While instantaneously feeling
the same

We can politically straddle the
great divide

While below loving the canyons
and plains

We can put all prejudice and
opinion aside

When the outcome is cast
zero-sum

And in those moments our greatness
calls loudest and true

With the blood of a freedom
—hard won
