DARE TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
The first thing a man learns upon arriving in prison is what it means to be alone. The second, and harder, lesson is that you never grow accustomed to it. Prison as a place is its own world; it has its own dialects, value system, rhythm and rules — many of which are not optional. Initially I subscribed to that "zero mindset"... a result of which is I am now confined in "ad-seg"– kept in isolation and only allowed out of my cell for one hour each day, with only writing as a means to fill the void. While circumstances have conspired to limit my physical world, I have found new horizons inside myself... and discovered a desire to be more, to grow.

I am seeking a mature, adventurous person to correspond with for the exchange of ideas and information — someone not afraid to challenge me to be more than I am today. Someone who can possibly help me to better my chances of someday becoming a productive member of society. Someone who, with me, will dare to dream. Take a chance on me! My interests and tastes are eclectic, and I WILL respond to ALL!

Rediscovering Mystery
I came once to an imagined place,
And though I thought I did not believe–
Cast quietly about, just in case
There might be some familiar face...
Carefully, as not to take my leave.

Silent watching for all I might see;
So jealous to never then reveal
Any part of what might well be me,
There rediscovering mystery -–
Among treasures thought could not conceal.

Like winter wood refusing its burn;
Flames that want a heartfelt blow...
I feared to manage my own return,
For the road taken I'd yet to learn
And I could not think of where to go.

So discounted as a fairy tale...
The many doubt what may not exist,
And while that theory may prevail–-
Reality seems so very pale,
And the fantasy I must resist.
