Title: Anywhere but here
Author: Cole, Emanuel Andrea
Pages: 1 page
Text (TR_WF): Anywhere But Here by E. Andrea Cole I'm in prison, so of course I wish I were anywhere but here. The problem with that though, is that I, and all of my woes, are bound to go with me. So I often wish I were anyone but me. And the person I usually wish I was is my little brother. He's peacefully residing in an urn somewhere at my sister's house. No worries. No grieving. No nightmares. Yeah, sometimes, that's where I want to be. At my sister's house. No worries. No griev...

Title: Evolution of a dreamer
Author: Sampson, Terrence
Pages: 26 pages
Text (TR_WF): Evolution of a Dreamer It seems that all I've known in life is adversity and perseverance, two polar opposites in meaning, but one dependent on the other to exist and have meaning. Adversity has come as a result of my own choices, which has also caused adversity in the lives of people I've hurt the most. In some ways I am thankful for adversity, for were it not for the struggle or the pain, I wouldn't be the man I am today. I could have wilted, I could have crumbled, I could ha...

Text (FT): Graveyard Secrets By Toby L . Williams One of our favorite passtimes behind these walls of incarceration is traveling the boulevard of reminising for the purpose of caressing those special moments with our memories. And to assist us in our journey, we'll invite others to cruise the pages of our photo album. We'll reflect on that special young lady that captivated our interest in her with the fragrance of her beauty, with the allure of her delectable smile, with the contours of her p...

Title: I almost completed school
Author: Cole, Emanuel Andrea
Pages: 1 page
Text (TR_WF): I almost completed school. I almost found my groove in many good jobs. I almost got married, which is probably the best "almost" I've ever (not) done. I almost graduated the Men of Nehemiah program. That would've been a helluva accomplishment. But, alas, it didn't pan out. Every time I'm close to getting past almost, something in me says "screw up" and, like a mindless zombie, I always obey. There's a few things I didn't almost do, though. I d...

Text (O): NO TITLE 6-17-18 A.P.W.A., I’m a prisoner in the Texas department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ), and I’ve been incarcerated in this prison system just days short of twenty flat years. So I’ve seen it all. Thus, I have a deep understanding of how TDCJ functions and operates (officer’s and offender’s). Inasmuch, there’s two major problems concerning TDCJ which I would like to address (gang affiliation & administrative segregation). So I plan to write two separate essays. However, in this first...

Title: My name is Maurice G Willis
Author: Willis, Maurice G., Sr.
Pages: 2 pages
Text (O): To whom it may concern. My name is Maurice G Willis and I am incarcerated at the Polunsky Unit in Livingston Texas. My inmate number is 0934456. I am indigent with no source of funds and my family have abandoned me. They only showed interest in my case when they thought I would get a bunch of money when I was proven innocent. But when it could cost any money to get a lawyer and start my appeal, they went away. I was convicted of capital murder in 2000, received a life sentence and have been i...

Author: Welch, Jackie, Jr.
Pages: 4 pages
Text (FT): Jackie Welch #1450700 Darrington Unit 59 Darrington Rd. Rosharon, Tx 77583 On The Inside Looking Out What is a man to do when he is so close, but yet so far away from the ones he loves? What hurts even more is when someone has a desire to be there and it seems impossible. Being incarcerated in a correctional institution because of wrong choices has separated many willing sons, daughters, wives, husbands, and most of all fathers from homes where they are very much needed. The majority of these...

Title: Young, poor, black, male (potentially dangerous), and irrelevant
Author: West, Kenneth
Pages: 4 pages
Text (TR_WF): Young, Poor, Black, Male (Potentially Dangerous), and Irrelevant By Kenneth West If you can imagine being 19, innocent, yet found guilty by a jury of any and everything but your peers, and subsequently sentenced to a 120 years in prison; then perhaps you can understand the deep seated place of pain this essay comes from. However if you are incapable of such an imaginative leap, which most people are, then I fear that what I write will only be connected lines of text that our brains recognize ...
