First World Prison Problems

As I strive to read this paper,

I am constantly bombarded with

Various forms of attempted conversation.

‍

From random and extremely unimportant

Questions to idle chit-chat small talk.

‍

Can't you see I’m reading?

All week to talk,

Yet right now you need me.

‍

Take a break and a breath.

‍

So I begin to write, they keep talking.

I wished they'd jog on,

Or practice walking

‍

I'd like to take this paper in the dunny,

But that's frowned upon.  

‍

Why me, why now, why, why, why?

‍

Hang on a second… I’m in gaol;

If that’s my only problem I’m kicking

Goals…
