Serving Time In The Prison Planet Poem by Yehualashet Teshome

Serving Time In The Prison Planet

Rating: 5.0


Locked in the prison planet
Serving time
Sentenced to life in prison
No idea what I did to deserve this punishment
God knows
But says nothing
Everybody is a prisoner like me
Only few notice
Thrown here at birth
To be released at death
Nowhere to complain
Nowhere to appeal

Interesting concept. I like the judicial theme. Yes, in a way we are all prisoners. Life can certainly be very harsh. However, I do believe that there is a place to complain and appeal and even be acquitted and freed.
