Unknown Crime

I pitied you from the moment you put me in Prison for a
Crime never committed
I fought for my birth rights and you labeled me as
A criminal. I was just sixteen then and today I turned 24,
All these years in prison, I
Have memorized your face, and gestures.
I saw you as my inmate. I, behind bars, you
Behind invisible bars of ignorance.
One calm winter evening, when I stole a potato from the farm,
You smelled me and broke my wrist; you made me stand naked in the cold ruthless night,
In the morning, when I was still breathing, you tied my hands and forced me to eat
s***, while you with your other ignorant friends in uniforms, attacked me with
The heartless laughs, and enjoyed the misery.
I don’t care what goes in my body because my mind is not
Corrupted as yours. You can do anything with my body,
Touch my soul, you dare.
