I Feel So Lonely Ojore Dhoruba

I feel so lonely trapped in a cage surrounded by warehoused bodies Oh so lonely as I eat meals alone, day after day; year after year So lonely amongst the volumes of words, yells, screams, banging and complaints I feel so lonely when I stare into the late night darkness of my cement box

I feel so lonely not being able to be a father, uncle and son Oh so lonely knowing I’m out of sight; out of mind So lonely when I fail to hear my name during mail call I feel so lonely having to console myself Everyday I feel so lonely isolated in a deathrow cell
