Reconstruct the poem by dragging each line into its correct position. You can also use the up (↑) and down (↓) arrows to move a line one place at a time, or the top (⇑) and bottom (⇓) arrows to move a line directly to the top or bottom. Your goal is to reassemble the original poem as accurately as possible. As you move the lines, you'll see whether your arrangement is correct, helping you explore the poem's flow and meaning. You can also print out the jumbled poem to cut up and reassemble in the classroom. Either way, take your time, enjoy the process, and discover how the poet's words come together to create something truly beautiful.

And hiss and hate. And the blind fight the blind.
The darkness and the thunder and the rain.
We'll grasp firm hands and laugh at the old pain,

And no man claimed the conquest of your land.
With new-won eyes each other's truer form
And wonder. Grown more loving-kind and warm
And in each other's dearest ways we stand,
We stumble and we do not understand.
When it is peace, then we may view again
You only saw your future bigly planned,
You are blind like us. Your hurt no man designed,
And we, the tapering paths of our own mind,
