Tales from Jail

The last time I was sent to jail, the Minneapolis Adult Dentention Center, I asked to be placed in solitary confinement; and for a pencil.

I wrote a timeline of my life on those walls; and just looked at it.

This was the Pine Car Derby race, this was Florida, this was vodka.

And all of it painted a pictured that ends with me.

From that point on I've been trying to better guide my story; ever attempting to see it from an elevated, external, perspective, to decide what might be best.
