As Shelley described poets as the "unacknowledged legislators of the world", totalitarian authorities and oppressive governments have tended, throughout the centuries, to shut their mouths and put them in jail or sentence them to death due to their steadfast right word which oppose their policies and call for human rights. Most poets, for the most part, have not subdued to tyrants and their writings have been for mankind in general that you, sometimes, might not identify the poet's nationality. The current pages are intended to give examples of imprisoned and unimprisoned poets accompanied by their poems which demonstrate their self- extension in their societies in particular, and other societies in general, and to what extent they achieved their goal in arousing people's feelings to interact with them. In addition, it shows up the results of the interplay towards the poet as an individual of this or that society resulting from innocent voices devoid of disgrace and betrayal. Consequently, what creeps in society are but love, friendship and sympathy as the main consequences of that slumberous tenderness gushing out of the poet's paternal and responsible heart.
