As i have put this together my thoughts are is this man a political Prisoner.? Or a ( prisoner of others politics?) I wrote this reflecting Upon human debasement by and within some people.' And the desire Of others to reach out and support familiy.' Who have been trafficked Tortured abused vilified, and most likely would also extend help to non Familiy.' Is that a political reality? Or standpoint? Or the cognizence for a Better human interaction, of life in general? And if we accept mis-labelling? In us I am including all on this 'poetry forum' do we become prisoners of Other peoples politics? Despite being a-political even' I beleive life is from The ultimate poet ( God almighty) the author of all, and politics is but part Of the larger tapestry that unfolds around us.' May God bless all readers Of this script.'
I can't really think of a number.? If seems almost irrelevant
Now.' It well might be? plus twenty million, if the lawyers
Get involved? anyhow.' For giving wrong terms to your
Prisoner out of 'context and reason' to boot.' Punished
Unduly on 'a nations behalf i can think only? oh shoot.!! By the way.' Do all agree
its un-wanted; outrageous??. Well its time
To get talking and stand.' sending your emails in blizzards, throughout all.. And every part of the land'
Now today' this undue punisment of Tommy.' It Could be
One of your own sons; can you see? Oh and just b t w.! I'm sure he'd
Wecome support; from of, the whole Commonwealth family! from its length
And its breadth may i say.? For its this mothers son at
The moment.' Held in contempt of humanitys better ways' Can you hear me in Oz and NZ? Even Canada??
Or no matter how far away? throw now, all weight behind
Freeing someone, who desired a life just better, in his days.'
He's no coward, no offender to children! Yet suffers bad
Karma most quyeer' Now get him out from the
Drabness of prison, into the light; into the freedom of a life with no fear.!

If the existing government despises you, then you know you are doing something right. Politics, politicians should never be confused with true Statesmen. As you say, people need to speak out...at some point political animals will listen...and react favorably...for if left with only themselves to relate to~ all the people reconciled to oblivion, they will spend their days projectile vomiting at their own reflections.

Projectile vomiting?? How Descriptive..I beleive they are More than most people most Aware of humanitys wretched State.' The thing is they seem To wallow in it.? Perhaps they are blind to 'ways better?' Thank you Joe-Dimino.)
