Stefano Zani's Project

Letters from Death Row, Pt. 1

Ten days 'till departure time.
You already know that they killed my neighbor,
Elmer, 5 days ago.
Then they moved me
into his cell.

After they execute someone
they move the rest of us down one cell,
working our way to cell#1,
the launching pad to the gurney next door.

This is a bad luck cell
very few of us get out of here alive!

These will be hectic days, freighted with emotion,
all the final letters, all the final phone calls, final visits,

final goodbyes.

This is a bad luck cell
very few of us get out of here alive!

Things have become
even more regimented
as 'established procedures'
increasingly take over.

More cell front visits
from high ranking officials
forms to fill out
(cremation or burial?)
