PERSPECTIVE

September 1, 2018 by San Quentin News Contributor

Today was the absolute worst day ever

And don’t try to convince me that

There’s something good in every day

Because. when you take a closer look,

This world is a pretty  evil place.

Even if

Some goodness does shine through once in a while

Satisfaction and happiness don’t last.

And it’s not true that

It’s all in the mind and heart

Because

True happiness cab be obtained

Only if one’s surroundings are good

It’s not true that good exist

I’m sure you can agree that

The reality

Creates

My attitude

It’s all beyond my control

And you’ll never in a million years hear me say that

Today was a good day

Now read from the bottom

“if y’all think I did it…just give me a lawyer, dawg, ‘cause this is not what’s up.”Warren Demesme said during police questioning.The Louisiana Supreme Court held that this reference was too ambiguous to count as a request for counsel. REASON Magazine, January 2018
