Throughout our programs Stick and Duck detail their
experiences about doing time. Though there are entertaining movies and books
about prison life, those don’t compare to the real thing.

The Real Thing

Bosses scream while
walking the runs of our prison wing all day and most of the night. The nights
are the worst. Some of their voices are all right but most of them grate on our
nerve endings, like fingernails screeching against a blackboard. Other sounds
pierce the fleet slices of nightly solitude.



The banging of
locker doors, the abusive curses from one row to another, and the pitiful
pleadings and crying of, “please no more, no more” make this world one nobody
could understand without experiencing it.

We cover our ears,
longing for the unnatural acts to be over quickly. A few of us begin to pray
for the person being molested. We get very little sleep.
