Us And Them Poem by Claire Doble

Us And Them

Rating: 2.0


We're the ones here now

it's us. that's it

on the spot

in the place

my face

and yours

just a set of real people

all with our own lives

loves

pains and joy

so why

do we feel so afraid

of Them

that They'll come

and

take it all away

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
The morning I wrote this poem, I saw a repellent poster from a local extreme-right political group that was scare-mongering about immigrants by using an image of a woman in a burqua. It made me really angry.
