    " 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.

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
