To be able
To empathise with the suffering
Of people you cannot see
To grieve for a child, a parent
A brother, a sister
Not your own
To try to shine a light
On violence far away
Even as you face violence
Here and now
To do all this civilly
Even when those around you
Are uncivil; and worse
Is to be truly human
