Prisoners (Free Verse Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

(in answer to André Letoit)

Every white man is seen as an enemy to the state
(where they do only serve the black multitude)
are as people from life and opportunities denied
and it does not bother them if we do this deserve.
The iron curtain has been in place for decades
and in secret meetings doors are shut
where the black people do conspire and plot for their own gain,
do only set the table for them and their friends
and every white person is now set for own survival
where constantly the government twists the truth
and unemployment and farm killings comes to a fullness
while politicians keep sing inciting songs
in a illusion of a world where they do promise freedom to everyone
but secretly do pamper themselves over others that murder and plunder and rob.
