Penitentiary Theater, by Larry Stromberg

Plays are my Psalms sung unto God, someone once told me 

Stories staged to bless the condemned 

A portrait of deliverance or chaos, freeing the hopeless for just a few short hours 

We are all actors behind the razor wire 

Moment by moment, one scene at a time 

I feel alive portraying these roles 

The struggles of the confined 

This is where my redemption dwells 

A purpose revealed to this mass population 

A dedicated legacy defined
