MY PRISON

nephilim56

                                             MY PRISON

                                 ( FATHER OF I.P.P. PRISONER )

 

                     THERE"S NO LOCKS OR KEYS
                     WITHIN MY PRISON
                     NO RULES
                     THAT MAKE NO SENSE.

                     NO WALLS NO WIRE
                     NO VIOLENCE DAILY
                     NO DRUGS OR SCREWS
                     WHO SHOUT

                     NO SUICIDE WATCH
                     NO SELF HARM OR DEATH
                     JUST STRESS AND HEARTACHE
                     TO FILL EACH ROOM

                     TIME FROZEN LIFE EBBS AWAY
                     SIMPLY SO POLITICIANS CAN SAY
                     " TOUGH ON CRIME."
                     "TOUGH ON ITS CAUSES."

                     THEY DO NOT SEE
                     NOR NIGHTLY HEAR
                     THE HEAVY BREATH
                     OF THOSE IN FEAR

                     THE TIRED TEAR FALL
                     OR ITS SALTED CALL
                     TO POLITICS AND PEOPLE HEAR
                     BUT BOTH SEEM DEAF AND BLIND.
