| Notes | The first-person speakers of this poem are inhabitants of a refugee camp. Land confiscation and war are mentioned as the causes of their displacement. God is invoked to alleviate hunger or to put an end to their suffering. This poem does not specify the context or location, but the date of publication (2015) suggests that it may have been inspired by the Syrian refugee crisis. |
