Today,the guards made me bleed again
They chained my feet so tight
I could barely move
I bleed through my socks,
last month it was my left ankle,
today it was the right
When I wash,
the soap burns like fire,
but I have to keep my ankles clean
because I don't have any alcohol,
or peroxide,
nothing to kill a bacteria or infections,
and this place is filthy
I can't remember what it's like
to walk as a human being anymore.
My cell is so small
that I can only take two steps.
any time when I'm brought out,
I walk briefly or infrequently.
I have chains on my hands and feet
as well as guards hanging on me
And well over sixteen years since I have actually walked anywhere
sometimes I still can't wrap my mind around now
I'm working on my seventeenth year now.
There were times when I thought,
"surely, someone's gonna put a stop to this.
Surely someone is gonna do something"
But they never do
Time just rolls on
It's insanity
I'm truly amazed of what they've gonna allow to get away with
and for how long
Oh well,
there's no good to dwell on it
either I waste my energy by focusing on things I cannot change
or I can serve my energy
and to bled to small things I can change.
That's what the I Ching calls --
the taming power of the small.
