A very well-written political 5-7-5 poem. When free speech is only allowed for one group and the other us not allowed to say anything there is definitely something huge wrong.

The author's words are true, descriptive, interesting and creative.
Silence does feel safe. I pondered on the theme of this poem.
The author's words are strong yet need to be said. The poem flows and connects well. The artwork is perfect and compliments this poem.

This is a very short and concise haiku style poem based on politics and fear. Sometimes that is hanging in our country these days. Your lines are short, but the meaning is large. Thank you for sharing your work.

Good poem and the art is a good choice. To me man has been forever imprisoned by political whims. Hereʻs a Biblical truth : Man has dominated man to his harm . ( Ecclesiastes 8:9) Caʻt deny that

Where is the freedom and have you done with it? I think that this is the subtle allusion to it in this poem? Thank you for sharing and good luck with the contest and your writings.
