Analysis and comments on A Sad State Of Freedom by Nazim Hikmet

Comment 2 of 2, added on March 28th, 2005 at 10:33 PM.

Perhaps the worst kind of freedom is freedom that looks like it: mocking us, mocking our deeper disquiet that there is indeed no freedom.

I am interested in analyzing this poem but only have a vague idea of the poet’s main message. Initially, I believed that the message was how we, as average citizens are free to do whatever we please but I would like to know if other readers found a deeper, possibly more negative meaning. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
