Texas Prisoner Burials Are a Gentle Touch in a Punitive System
Inmate 327320
Acres of headstones and crosses
But no guard in site
Forgotten by family
Grave dug by prisoners
Who carry your coffin,
Bow their heads,
And cover you with earth
Wearing dirt stained jump suits,
They carve your name in marble,
Forgive the misspelling.
Inmate 327320
Acres of headstones and crosses
But no guard in site
