Clad in Orange: A Poem About Jail

Thank you so much! It means a lot (:
Angry poetry is definitely one of the best. Same with misery, but misery gets old I suppose. The highest of emotions will always create the greatest poems. (:

I could not agree more, and it's so hard to be free from the system once you're in it. I don't think I know a single one of my peers who hasn't been on probation at some point before they were even 21, most often for weed or paraphernalia. It's practically a norm. Hopefully they'll legalize it throughout the entire state sooner than later so these kids don't have to walk into adulthood with thousands of dollars in fines and fees for smoking a little weed. Until then, I'll remain a patient. I've got a new appreciation for freedom; or maybe they finally broke me. haha

Thank you again for taking the time to read and comment<3
