Prison Song Poem by Ramakrushna Sahu

Prison Song

Rating: 5.0


We all are alloted a death cell
Of flesh and blood and bones
To take birth in the prison
And the pleasure we need
Are all painted on its walls

Wr have also the freedom
To open the five windows of senses
Of the death cell whenever we like To pull the world in and
Through the big door of the mind
Go out for a flight
High in the sky above the prison

What more do we need?
Fight for food like an animal
And surrender for love like human
Till in the gallow of time
To be hanged defenceless

So long we are in need of prison
No question arise for a domicile beyond
Even no question arise
If there is anything called freedom.
