stealing from paul

when i was in my cell.
there were rules
that she insisted on.
lights out by nine.
bland food.
the disney channel
on the tube.
no books that gave a
clue as to what she
was up to.
no movies. no fun.
no sex. no laughter.
no puns.
punishment was silence.
punishment was another
day behind the bars.
never seeing no one
nice again, like you.
