Inspired by a Lyric 3  August 24, 2008 - August 31, 2008

Same rules as the last two times. I give you a lyric (just a portion of a song), you read it, and you make it into a poem, story, whatever. Let it inspire you. You don't even have to incorporate the song, but please don't submit unless you were inspired by THESE LYRICS, and PLEASE don't write something completely random that has nothing to do with it. I wanna be able to tell it was caused by this.

Thanks :)

"They all cheat at cards and the checkers are lost,
My cellmate's a killer, they make me do push-ups (in drag),
But nobody cares if you're losing yourself.
Am I losing myself?!
Well, I miss my mom!
Will they give me the chair?
Or lethal injection, or swing from a rope if you dare!
Ah, nobody knows all the trouble I've seen!"
