![]() I was sitting in the parole building waiting to be called by my Parole Officer (PO). I was like damn when is this shit going to be over with. I hated going to parole and hearing people conversation that floated in my ear. It made reading difficult because of the noise distraction and I could not block it out with music because phones have to be off. Two hours had passed, and I was getting restless. The only good thought I had was at least I only reported every 3 months. My PO called another person. I am wondering how many people before me since I got there at 10 am. Another hour past before she called me. I shot passed her to where the drug test kits were at and ask do you need urine because I was not tested last time I came. She said, “No, you are going straight out the back door. You done.” I paused and let that sunk in on the atomic level. “You done.” The vision I had over the weekend was manifested before me in those words, “you done”. My PO then said, “Virginia released you 2 weeks ago I am closing your file now.” I didn’t bother to ask why you didn’t tell me before I came in or had me wait 3 hours knowing I was off parole. I didn’t care. I felt a sword was lifted from over my head. Since I was 17 years old, I was on some type of jail, probation, prison, and parole. At 44 years old I became my own man again. No more travel passes! No more home visits from the PO! And no more reporting to this building! I no longer had to worry about walking on a razor blade edge and potentially losing my quasi-freedom and leaving my baby daughter without a father. This is the opening to a current book I am working. I will be detailing my own reentry strategies and insights on how to get off parole early. My other books are available now: Prison Survival: Hell's Prism a memoir of my experience in prison. The Hidden Hand: Duality of Self a fast pace Urban Political Street Thriller.
