CHINO



When he was eighteen
He got in trouble with
The law and jailed, too.

He was tried, sentenced
For something he didn't
Do. He was hauled off to
Prison by who knows, who.

The system took
His rights, freedom and
Body, but he refuses to
Give up his soul and mind.

By the time he gets
Out he will be old and his
Young life will be left behind.

He found a friend
And she loves him until
The hurt is gone.

Prison is a cold
And lonely place that
You learn to exist
And go on.

Someday he will be
Free, So he can go
Home to Mexico.

You see he is
Also illegal, and then
He will be free.

His name is
Chino.
This is part of his
Story. The rest will
Be told by Glory.
