Jailed Time Poem by L.P. Alexanders
Jailed Time
Jailed Time
There...
Outside on the streets,
He felt powerful and safe
In the insecurity of the night,
But now here...
A new world he meets,
Inside of a total security cave
He is afraid of the daily light
Sleeping in a 3-wall room,
Spending every long and monotonous day;
His sentence: his doom;
He’s hopeless because he cannot run away

Wow, such a beautiful contrast has been elucidated. Safe in the dark and insecure in the light, for the character that he is!
