Poet's Journey

His musings in paper and ink have led him to the dungeons. Rusty iron bars, smell of rats, and cold wars surround him. His people see through their leaders, like water through the glass. Nothing can stop them now- verses of freedom have been burnt to ashes, but not his words. They are deeply engraved in every woman’s, child’s and man’s heart. They are at the prison gates, breaking them. Bullets and teargas canisters can’t stop them. They want their leader- man of the people. If he is freed, he will not only be a poet; he will be a leader. A new journey will begin in his life…..
