Can you explain what this poem means/or is trying to explain?
The Old Prison
The rows of cells are unroofed,
a flute for the wind's mouth,
who comes with a breath of ice
from the blue caves of the south.
O dark and fierce day:
the wind like an angry bee
hunts for the black honey
in the pits of the hollow sea.
Waves of shadow wash
the empty shell bone-bare,
and like a bone it sings
a bitter song of air.
Who built and laboured here?
The wind and the sea say
-Their cold nest is broken
and they are blown away-
They did not breed nor love,
each in his cell alone
cried as the wind now cries
through this flute of stone.
Judith Wright
-What is the message and could anyone identify some of the similies and metaphors?
Thanks, 10 points for best answer.

"The Old Prison" is one of Judith Wright's best poems. It tells of the early days of settlement in Australia and the inmates hardships in - most probably - Port Arthur Prison. This poem uses a large number of similes and metaphors combined with some strong imagery. The notion of prison is made more harsh through the sustained image of a stark environment and the personification of the wind blowing “from the blue caves of the South... like an angry bee”.
Nature is no longer the inmates friend. It is to be painfully endured during their term of incarceration. References are made to the absence of normal human activity. The inmates are described as being in a nest but not one consisting of warmth and security. Their nest is more like that of a seabird that builds its nest precariously on the side of a cliff. Like them, the inmates are lone, solitary figures deprived of human love and warmth.
