Now Serving Life
It’s really hard
to have to serve a sentence for life when you know that you are not guilty. I
had a strange boyhood. As I remember, I cried every time someone told lies on
me. Up until I was about 10 years. That was unusual but I think I still suffer
this cry baby tendency. I have a morbid fear of being accused of anything. The
good thing about it is that it keeps me clean and in good company.

Now Serving Life No
one believed his testimony Opposing
lawyer argued for maximum penalty When
the jury came back it was a unanimous verdict Sentenced
for murder with no chances to acquit Every
day he served time regretting his misdeed Running
with bad company now he’ll never be freed Verdict
was overturned when the killers confessed Innocent
man released but society was unimpressed No
one believed him, they thought him a phony Guilt
by association, he kept bad company Life
sentence was his verdict and though freed he remains In
shackles and bounded by societal restrains Friends
can determine if you’ll be living in strife Exercise
