Tug Poem by Harlan Simantel

Tug



perpetual tug of war
freedom versus regulation
within me
within the nation

too much of one
the other smothers

liberals lean to freedom
conservatives lean to restriction
each with their own deep conviction

in the body politic
in the body me
a sensible balance
is the happy key
