COMMENTS OF THE POEM

This poem is long but contains a few absolute gems, you need to read to find them: 'I and the public know What all schoolchildren learn, Those to whom evil is done Do evil in return. ' 'There is no such thing as the State And no one exists alone; Hunger allows no choice To the citizen or the police; We must love one another or die. '
