Prison Poem

Book of poems written while I was in Federal Prison. William Sheldon Prison Poems is a raw, unflinching journey through the mind and soul of a man behind bars. In this powerful collection, William Sheldon peels back the layers of confinement, not just the physical walls of prison, but the emotional and spiritual shackles that weigh heavily on the incarcerated. Each poem is a snapshot of survival, resilience, and reflection-sometimes dark, sometimes hopeful, always honest. From the quiet ache of isolation to the burning desire for redemption, Sheldon's words echo through the corridors of pain, memory, and longing. His poetry doesn't ask for pity; it demands to be heard. These verses remind us that even in the harshest of places, humanity still pulses, dreams still flicker, and the voice of a poet can rise above concrete and steel. A must-read for lovers of real, gritty, soul-stirring poetry; Prison Poems speaks not just to those inside the system, but to anyone who has ever felt trapped and yearned to be free.
