Counting Heads Gray walls surround me. made of mason, brick, the door of iron and steel. A window made with wire plexaglass separates the in from outside. In the corner a small stainless sink and commode combined witha plastic mirror. Against the wall a bed and pillow A dim light shines from above with a table and chair bolted to the floor. Sounds ofkeys jingle every half hour as the guardwalks through..... Counting heads. |

Interesting. Caught my attention right away with the materials - as I work in construction. I love steel. Ate dinner in a prison last year. Wasn't at all what I expected. Things I never thought of before. Like the keys every half hour. |

Froggy Can't you have a normal study like everyone else A clang of door can often be a chance to think providing you are protected against everyone else. In Glasgow they slept body to body Washing was the gossip and the talk of the steamie Now we talk of overcrowding A lot more I could say but dont please forget that honest police dont have mandates on hit rates or colour, sex, etc., which Blair is now introducing into this country, or allowing to be introduced. You raise a point but the point is, no one wants justice, just punishment as the US is now seen from Europe Dave |

Your vividly realistic depiction of what it would be like to be incarerated, certainly added to my conviction of being a good little girl! What a nightmare situation to fine one's self in! LInda |
