purple Lupines create a foreground effect below glistening concertina wire as the morning sun shines down the prison in April blooms forth despite itself – goslings, tan with black spots stop traffic forcing recognition of nature in a place void of hope springtime blessing the groundskeepers and those fortunate enough to have been given yard time blue skies only corrupted by chemical spray –         laughing inmates break my concentration as a pigeon lands on              barred windows           a cool breeze creeps in diluting the stale air education floor buzzes with activity as forgotten men seek to become more better different I sit encouraged by light bulbs – crackling radio signals the line movement round two of handshakes and polite jokes another hour and twenty minutes of magic I quietly sit back and smile at the scene laid before me no student has more fire for education than a man who thought himself less than nothing

inspired morning
