Aquarium Poem by maria rahman

Aquarium

Rating: 4.3


Thoughts like the fishes
Swim from left to right
And from right to left
Know not what they might

Off the wall of aquarium
Where the prejudice lies
The society prevails
In the negative guise

They nibble the given
Ration of food
Oxygen in proportion
Live or you are screwed

Break the walls of this
Aquarium I wish
I wish to be free
Even if I am a dead fish
