I have sat in a cell

I have sat in a cell
[although not yet
arrested – never –
but held there for
an easier life for a
copper] & know a
trick or two [now]
about putting up
with denials of my
movement – it has
readied me for my
future infirmity – a
nebulose scheme/
I thank all accusers
[proving them both
guilty of perjury]/ I
sat & reeled purest
truths – you asked?
