A Man with a Broom

 

Leaving his broom in the corridor

He came into class and sat for a while

He was worried about anger management

He had shot up a nightclub after all

 

That was after his brother was murdered there

He gets out in twelve days, and he is worried

He has passed over half of his life in prison

He hasn’t seen his son in over nine years

 

He said he has learned to place God first

Some of it might be true
