Poem of the Day: Thoughts Of A Convict by Luis Verduzco
Eric Ruin (Just Seeds Artists' Cooperative - Critical Resistance)
Thoughts Of A Convict
by Luis VerduzcoSome day the gates will open,
and once more I’ll be free.
A fact that makes me wonder,
“What will become of me?”Have I a future awaiting me,
Such as the past I’ve known?
Will I be accepted by others,
or forced to walk alone?Are there opportunities of employment,
for a man such as I?
Or will I have to sell dope again,
in order to get by?What of the friends that I once knew,
but haven’t seen in years?
Will they accept my friendship now,
without any doubts or fears?What is there awaiting me,
When I go out of that gate?
Is there yet a chance for me,
or is it now to late?
