of fear filled
with land mines
and mind games
and endless lights
made of gas
seeping into consciousness
seeking to confuse
and defuse
determined conscientiousness...
when is enough
enough?
when one knows
one is Enough.
Courage...
Amen.

(Picture of Olga Misik, 17, in Moscow, sitting in front of officers reading out the constitution of Russia, which affirms the right to peaceful protest. In the face of such calm courage, the officers hold back.)
Inspiring as always, thank you Brian. I wouldalt offer only one possible alternate reading (which also addresses your wonderful question to all "what is courage?": I would capitalize one word in the last stanza: "...when one knows ONE is enough.
