Herein, is the tale of both experiences, and observations during the 15-year prison sentence, in NYS maximum security prisons.You get to hear the stories, humanize the outcasts of society, build life-long friendships, and engage in supernatural divinely guided love that only a small group of prison wives and husbands conceptualize.This collection of poetry candidly focuses on the human experience in America's 20th century prison minority disenfranchisement, inferiority, racism, discrimination, love, parenthood, mass incarceration, "broken-homes", trauma, poverty, sexuality, growth, and spirituality all intertwined in harmonious literary form.
