A Call To Build (The Pink Party Nation)

  1. A CALL TO BUILD
    THE PINK POETRY NATION!
    For Breast Cancer Awareness
    Jerome DeVonni Wilson © 2018
    As a wrongfully convicted prisoner in the wrongful conviction capital of the
    world — Texas, my struggle is encumbered by the fact that I not only have to fight for
    freedom, but also have to fight for my right to fight for freedom.
    So, I mentally employed the new concept: To Better One’s Self as to Better One’s
    Struggle. Thus, I decided to help others in order to apply this concept. Since my
    grandmother was a breast cancer survivor, I would advocate for that movement.
    We put together a book titled, Pink Poetry: A Literary Crusade for Breast Cancer
    Awareness. Being published from the belly of the beast is a tedious task; to do it
    independently is quite a feat. . . yet it was done.
    However, this parallel universe is designed to keep us 100% dependent upon our
    captors. The application of knowledge and skill is forbidden unless it’s solely for the
    purpose of contributing to the furtherance of slavery by another name: Mass
    Incarceration.
    A Call to Build / Wilson 2
    Therefore, with respect for having books published that I’ve penned, I’ve received
    three disciplinary cases, been targeted, oppressed and censored for having the audacity to
    debunk the stigmatism attached to being an incarcerated Black man by doing something
    positive for myself and others.
    They have attempted to convert me to a meek, docile, subjugated slave with no
    voice. But this shouldn’t shock the conscious. These are the same ones who will force a
    man to labor under involuntary servitude yet not contribute any of the proceeds to his
    child support debt or an education fund for said prisoner’s child.
    Kaepernick and others are being slighted for their silent protests . . . here in this
    parallel universe, one’s silent protest is a quiet hymn that will forever be sung from the
    grave. . .
    If I had to be brutally honest with myself, I’d probably acknowledge that I’m
    growing weary. Tiresome. Exhausted. But those are unwelcome weaknesses that only
    distract my existence. If I wasn’t an invisible man with a hoarse throat — who only
    speaks in whispers because no one is listening — I could expound on how I am the matter
    that I’m composed of. Prison Lives Matter.
    But apparently I’m neither real with myself nor tangible to others, so my pleas are
    but ghost-writings, incessant weeping to deaf ears. Due to my captivity my irrelevance is
    in vogue. I know this because everyone is into it. No, seriously! My disregard is the latest
    craze with lawyers, publications, advocates for social justice, and sadly enough —
    relatives.
    A Call to Build / Wilson 3
    A few years ago while being treated for depression, I actually had a mental health
    nut look me in the eyes and tell me that I needed to forego my goal of publishing Pink
    Poetry because I was in prison and didn’t have the proper family support. He told me,
    with a straight face, that I was being unrealistic. . . that there was no possibility that I
    could accomplish. . . well, anything, according to the psyched-out provider.
    Yes, my wrongful capital life sentence and not having a support team were
    circumstances that I could not change. I’d be better off. . . and my depression would
    subside only once I gave up and accepted defeat; the fact that I was no factor.
    Fool he was!
    Are we not the same? Temples of flesh and bone endowed with hope and
    compassion yet adorned with immaculate flaws? Someplace, our bridge to nowhere has to
    meet at a cross-section of the community and people out there have to grasp that when
    people in here try to uplift ourselves, their helping us by validating our value, also helps
    society.
    If we lose sight of all that is not THIS, all we see is the misery of those becoming
    criminally insane. What’s to stop us from becoming it? Without righteous intervention,
    when the doors open for the prisoner, that miserable insanity seeps out into society like
    raw sewage from an eroded pipeline. Waste.
    Rather than resent-filled recidivists returning to our women, children and
    seniors . . . what if when we reached out we were acknowledged? Seen? Heard? Our pain
    and desire to rise from the ashes palpable enough to resonate with the common folk?
    A Call to Build / Wilson 4
    And while I’m feeding on dream-filled “what ifs,” what if the cretins of the prison
    slave complex removed the shackled from our feet, the bells from around our necks, and
    most importantly, lifted the prohibition from our will to aspire and achieve?
    As James Allen stated, “a man should conceive of a legitimate purpose in his
    heart, and set out to accomplish it,” because if not, “aimlessness is a vice, and such
    drifting must not continue for him who would steer clear of catastrophe and destruction.”
    Is this what they want for us? For me?
    I don’t want to be the filthy topic of a discussion held in some criminal justice
    course classroom where they weigh my words and then discard me when the bell rings.
    No. Be a bridge and link to me at http://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XGBFWST and
    together we can set off a chain of events that will evolve the world view of the
    incarcerated for the better.
    This isn’t an awkward alliance because just as Black and Brown men are effected
    disproportionately by incarceration, women of color are effected disproportionately by
    breast cancer mortality rates. In that respect we are all fighting for vitality on the
    battlefield of life.
    In a perfect world, from right here on this plantation, the fruits of our collective
    labor would enable PPN to reach our goal of contributing $10,000 to breast cancer
    research and outreach.
