Ernesto

Kurt Philip Behm

The story of revolution

the glory of Che

The fury of wander

a doctor’s foray

 

Silver spoon of his birth

the high noon of choice

A tune peasants cling to

that force in his voice

 

Daring insurrection

then falling from grace

Each stalling acceptance

a rebel’s embrace

His legend in khaki

a friend to the weak

Unbending in spirit

— both joyous and bleak
