Everyone counts the days.
Everyone is innocent.
Everyone smells.
Everyone makes noise.
Everyone wanks.
Everyone dreams.

Joe the nice screw who told you
the first 24 hours are the worst
was a liar.
You know that now.

There are no nice screws.

The sixth day is the day the before the seventh day.
One week.
All day you've thought and are thinking now:
tomorrow a week.

Didn't you used to say
I take it a day at a time?
well now you do.

Prison debate:
Open or Closed
Access to your children or not?
access to your family or not?
Constant degradation or not?

In Japan we (the anarchists) lost one of our finest minds for three years to the doctors of spin. But you may sing if you want.
It took us four months to take him back.
But your hands are unbound when you eat.
It took us 300,000$ of lobbying to send in Amnesty, but your constituents are joining you.
Time.
Bzzzt.
They're losing power in the real world.

And in prison conspiracy reigns.

I got out of bed late today.
I can get out of bed late today.
the bed.
zzzt. tzzz.

Joe! my old man, how you doing?
Today the Oireachtas discusses:

The Joint Committee on Justice, Equality, Defence and Women’s Rights will meet at 2.30 p.m in CR2, Leinster House.

Agenda:
Discussion with representatives of the financial institutions on crime prevention measures.

That's seem the most interesting, but the rural housing seems a bit "topical" as well. But to be honest I'll be doing my best to stay in bed as often as I can, you know, this week. It's a habit.


Now back to TIME.

It's still a little tent of blue.
& men still stare up at it.
& the chapel bell still tolls
but the lime long did its work.
Did God come in to this place ever?
Does he leave with the priest at five?
It's sill a little tent of blue.

i dreamt i saw joe higgins last night
as free as you and me.
said i but joe you're 10 hours inside.
i was never incarcerated said he.

and standing there as big as life
and smiling with his eyes
said joe what they forgot to imprison
went on to organise;
ernt on to organise.

the ff, pd, green & fg framed you joe
they put you in a prison cell
takes more than laws to imprison an idea
said joe and the campaign is fighting free

from sallynoggin up to balbriggans
in every call centre and sweatshop
its there you'll find joe higgins
and clare daly

I'm not sure if you missed The Joint Committee on Health and Children, Thursday at 9.30 a.m. in Committee Room 2, Leinster House.
and you probably didn't get to meet Dr. Sin Win, Prime Minister of Burma (in exile).
Terrible what's happening in Myanmar isn't it?

I reckon you'd agree that is past time we had a drugs debate.

Would you do us a favour and ensure that there's enough paper and computer access, printing, freedom of expression and that sort of stuff "in the Joy"?
so that all may move to full participation in society and the rehabilitation that promises?

I'll look after the little rascals now, so neither Dep. Lowry T.D. or Sinn Fein need worry about the technical grouping be crimalised.

Hello Little Rascals.
Bertie, you seem like a friend.

The Tv bzzzt

Oh I do declare Wesley Clark.

There as less ways of
Getting out of Mountjoy
than getting in.

But we really have to remind the public of one of the most impressive escapes of might I add a long list of impressive prison escapes.

30 years ago this Hallowe'en [31 Oct 1973 at at 3.40pm], JB O'Hagan, Seamus Twomey and Kevin Mallon escaped from Mountjoy.
They went up and over the wall of the exercise wing of D yard with the assistance of a hellicopter, to the applause of other inmates and the utter embarrassment of officialdom.
Cosgrave the man who was Taoiseach at the time was in the midst of a "law and order" campaign.

Unfortuantely for later tacticians this hellicopter escape left restricitions on use of the airspace above Mountjoy which last to today.




%-) Joe & Clare this is your anecdote for day 2.
We anarcho-dudes can't offer you a helli, but sure there's a few ballads a propio....
