"Convictions" is a poem I wrote while being in jail for a crime I did not commit.

My criminal conviction is not in accord

To the honest truth that has been consantly roared

From the many facts that are still being ignored

On my loving mind this situation has bored

A hole from the severe punishment being poured

My heart continues to feel like it's being gored

For the tragic death of the trust I had adored

Continues to dangle at the end of a cord

Thanks to Jesus this suffering I can afford

God has provided for me my armor and sword

So I can continue my journey in life toward

Defeating Satan who appears to be the lord

Of a poor dishonourable judge named Jim Ward

And thus becoming stronger is my award!
