A poem that seems to have the possibility to be used in several disciplines is one that was brought up at the site Rethinking Schools Online is titled "The Prison Cell" by Marhmoud Darwish. It can be accessed at:

They also have a corresponding set of questions for the classroom at:

If you're an English teacher you could do a compare and contrast between "The Prison Cell" and Don Quixote or a theatre production of "The Man of Lamancha".
I plan to use it with my unit on oppression.
