Placer, Fresno, and Butte County Juvenile Halls. April 28, 2015. Six steps forward, six steps back. Pacing, always pacing, loosing track…. Losing track of time slowly slipping away. Slipping away until the day…. Until the day this is all over. Pacing in my cell missing my mother and father. For them freedom sings. But I’m alone. When my mom p...

Planned Exchanges 2017: Jan 11; Feb 15; March 15; April 12; May 17. Thursday, May 28, 2015. At One Point In Time. My name is lost, wandering alone. A name broken like glass carved into bone.

Planned Exchanges 2017: Jan 11; Feb 15; March 15; April 12; May 17. Thursday, December 18, 2014. Pieces of a Puzzle. I have no more love to invest. Fates done dealt me a raw hand. But I keep my cards close to my chest. And my lips tighter than a raw clam. My mind is clouded with dark thoughts. But rays of hope keep trying to peek through. I Don’t Want It.
