    " The Terror Of Innocence"

    The sound of the metal doors echo through my haed
    Laying on a concrete floor with thoughts of being dead
    Prayers go nowhere in this hollow room
    Feeling inside the darkest gloom
    Guards get off with a cruel attack
    Works on them like an aphrodisiac
    The hardest patr of being here so long?
    Is the knowledge of doning nothing wrong
    Innocent as well as I may be?
    Bling justice will not turn around and see
    I lay awake almost every night
    Watching demons dance through a darkened light
    Cold air blowing through this empty cell
    Riandrops fall outside which I can smell
    Please give me a pardon set me free?
    Or in a jailhouse dying I may be
    Has everybody lost their common sense?
    Why must I live with the terror of innocence?

    Sam K. Dyer.

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

    Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
