The poem contains extremely dark examples of irony. One of its great ironies is that after escaping from the horrors of violence at home, refugees still experience violence in the camps where they arrive, even though the camps are supposed to be precisely a refuge from violence. After running from gang rape, the narrator still experiences sexual assault from a prison guard, the very person supposed to keep her safe. This expresses the fact that often times law enforcement another harmful force that refugees have to face, leaving refugees still unsafe upon their arrival in supposedly advanced, civilized countries.
