    The prison system, inherently unjust and inhumane
    Is the ultimate expression of injustice
    and inhumanity in the society at large.
    Those of us on the outside do not like
    to think of wardens and guards as our surrogates, yet they are.
    And they are intimately locked
    in a deadly embrace
    with their human captives behind prison walls.
    By extension, so are we.
    The terrible double meaning is thus imparted
    to the original question of human ethics
    "Am I my brother's keeper?"

    The second of February, 1980
    Began three days of misery
    A scene of retaliation
    Epitomizing violence, horror, and vindication
    Thieves, murderers, and rapists
    Inundated their prison like homicidal sadists
    Guards and convicts alike would pay the price
    To them the electric chair would look like paradise
    Only degradation, torture, and cremation would suffice

    A sea of agony rolled in like the coming of the tide
    The more fortunate escaped the insanity through suicide
    The screams of the dying would haunt the living to the grave
    Survivors of the riot relive the nightmare every day
    The last act of defiance

    With a never-ending appetite
    Barbiturates set them off like dynamite
    Eradicating informants
    Acetylene torches dealt the punishment
    Melted from skin to bone
    The fire silenced their screams to moans
    Smoke filled the air from bodies set aflame
    Begging for mercy, but their words were spoken in vain
    They weren't allowed to perish until they cherished all the pain

    Guards they had taken hostage
    Were to blame for pushing them over the edge
    Their brutality would be their demise
    Like sharks in a frenzy they lashed out at their prize
    When the madness had ended
    The gore was too intense to be comprehended
    No one explained the real reason why
    For cruelty of a few, so many should die
    They knew of the flaws, but still insist the cause was justified
