THE LOW ROAD
by Marge Piercy

What can they do 
to you? Whatever they want.
They can set you up, they can 
bust you, they can break 
your fingers, they can 
burn your brain with electricity, 
blur you with drugs till you 
can't walk, can't remember. They can 
take your child, wall up 
your lover. They can do anything 
you can't blame them
from doing. How can you stop 
them? Alone, you can fight,
you can refuse, you can 
take what revenge you can 
but they roll over you.

But two people fighting 
back to back can cut through 
a mob, a snake-dancing file 
can break a cordon, an army 
can meet an army.

Two people can keep each other 
sane, can give support, conviction, 
love, massage, hope, sex. 
Three people are a delegation, 
a committee, a wedge. With four 
you can play bridge and start 
an organisation. With six 
you can rent a whole house, 
eat pie for dinner with no 
seconds, and hold a fund raising party. 
A dozen make a demonstration. 
A hundred fill a hall.
A thousand have solidarity and your own newsletter; 
Ten thousand, power and your own paper; 
A hundred thousand, your own media;
Ten million, your own country.

It goes on one at a time, 
it starts when you care 
to act, it starts when you do 
it again after they said No, 
it starts when you say We 
and know who you mean, and each 
day you mean one more.
