[hometext] => About my brother in jail.
[bodytext] => An inmate stares at the song lyrics written on his cell door. Innocent, since not yet proven guilty, Trapped all the same. His family cries and waits and prays (even though they don't believe in it) and misses his light and his spirit and his wisdom. Innocent, Guilty, Whats the difference anymore? And when I pass those Concrete walls, Barbed wire fences, He's in there. Wrong place, wrong time, Or maybe it wouldn't have mattered either way. Those who love him, He himself, Wait patiently, Trapped all the same. Crying, praying, fighting, It's no difference. All helpless. All in that cell with him. Waiting. Wishing that the world will someday be fair. With no condolences Except That we are all Staring at those lyrics on that cell door.
