Dejected Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Dejected

Like child, rejected,
Feel sad, dejected.

Read of prisons,
Crime, injustice,
Greed of vicious.

"Each brick of jails
Is the cooked clay
Of power, misled…"
Was told in Dubai.

"You trust, accept
Words of dishonest
That seeks benefit…"
Mentioned Tavarish.

In chest, air is locked,
From such tricks
And shouting cannot…

Angry, I punch
Every silent wall
When read of Lisa
Sitting behind bars.

See myself in she
Sitting and thinking
About wasting life
According to laws:
"To correct, punish? "

Tell me of justice,
I ask who is right?
Can define the wrong?
What is core of law?
Who sets it and why?

I insist, question:
"What is prison?
Explain! Reasons? "
