The Six Month Silence

heartbroken

Six months ago I wrote a piece for the website just as we were waiting for a decision for a paper hearing, that would have decided at that time if Rob was to be released.

What has happened next is the story of the last six months and why I’ve been so quiet, quiet though is not how I would describe what’s gone on.

Money talks, bullshit walks!

Today it feels like a TKO (Technical Knock Out) with the absolute bullshit that I see on the news this morning.

The Run In

The Run In


I’ve not written my own piece for a while, it’s not for any other reason than I knew I would be writing this and I knew it was only a matter of time until ‘that’ time came.

So it’s at parole time, not something I’ve not been through before and not something that I can just ignore, everything is all about parole.

Stick a fork in me I’m done.
How much longer has this got to take, I’m ready now, please just let me come home. 
I am guilty, I’ve been punished and I’m so done with all this shit.

If the weather wasn’t hot enough, it’s twice as hot in this H.M.P cooking pot. Tensions are running high, the people are tearing chunks off anyone they can and it’s just a matter of time before this stew boils over the side.

The Imponderable Parole Pressure

The imponderable parole pressure

With the days turning into weeks and the weeks turning into months the thought of being released is getting even closer and the stress is rising.

The odds of being released on a paper hearing are very slim to nonexistent. But always trying to think on a positive side, that there is still that slight chance, even if it is less than winning the lottery, I’m still in it, so I can still win my freedom, boards are all about winning and losing.
