Gaza, A Prison-House Poem by Neela Nath Das

Gaza, A Prison-House

Rating: 4.8


Wolves howl and moan
Looking at the sky
Without The Sun and Moon.
Mornings bring no light
There and no bird sings.
Bloodshed, mass killing
And corpses of thousands,
Intensify their crime.
The prisoners can't flee,
From Gaza, a prison-house,
except being a member of morgue.

One must realize that Gaza was captured in the 1967 war. It is an occupied territory and people of Gaza are fighting for their freedom. It is not a dispute, it is an example of might is right.
