One person picks themself up from the ground
And someone close by sees, and does the same.
Dusts themself down, and carries on.
A third picks up the same idea:
Defeat is not defeat; and copies yet again
The resolution they have seen before.
And so it carries on; one act of courage
Can be infectious in a chain, and at the end
We all may rise again with pride.
