Alcatraz

Letter 23- N I A L L

14 July 2014

 

 

Dearest Zaynie,

 

Sounds like you are under a bit of stress right now, so I sent you a little something. You might’ve noticed that your letter has been once again packaged a bit differently than normal. Hooray for parcels, right?! Not only do you get a (cue TV announcer voice) *brand new CD,* but I’ve also included a pack of Marlboro Reds! *DING DING DING, we have a winner!* I happened across several photos of you with a Red hanging from your lips (major turn-on, I hear), and I figure you don’t get much luxury in Alcatraz, am I right? So here’s what I want you to do: I want you to sit down in a nice cosy armchair, pop in your new CD, and puff away at a cigarette or two while “Happy” plays in the background. You need to relax for a while, mate. You deserve it. I would offer you a back massage or something, but the whole “hundreds of miles away” thing kind of gets in the way, unfortunately. Fuck distance.

 

I’m sorry you’re having a rough time of things, but think of it this way: each day of boredom or suffering in Alcatraz means one day closer to your trial and your eventual freedom! It may seem like everything’s going to shit, but believe me, you’re strong enough to make it through this trying period in your life. I wouldn’t consider myself to be a very religious man, but I do think that there is some bigger force out there watching over you. Things will work out, you just wait. Like the great Ed Sheeran once said, “Everything will be okay in the end; if it’s not okay, then it’s not the end.” They don’t call him Ginger Jesus for nothing, you know.

 

I’m not sure what to make of this “storm” you describe, quite honestly. Without being there, it’s hard to tell, but I’d say you’re probably looking too far into things. You and I both know the other inmates aren’t too fond of you and to be honest, they probably never will be for whatever fucked up reason they’ve created in their heads. Who needs them, anyway? You’ve got all my love and support, so please, just focus on that for me, would you? To be honest, the other prisoners are probably just jealous that your court date is in what-- two months? I’ve heard getting a date (not the romantic type, Jesus, I can sense that smirk from here) is next to impossible nowadays with the decreased government funding. That, or they’re jealous that they don’t have an amazingly hilarious and sexy pen pal like myself. Either one sounds like a viable reason to me. Well, sort of. I couldn’t hate you even if I tried, but you know what I mean.

 

Fuck, I nearly forgot! I’ve just found out that I’m actually going to be in the San Francisco area in about three weeks for an internship interview for a position with Crystal Bay Publishing House, so maybe I can come visit you before your hearing? I’d understand if you didn’t want me there with everything going on, but let me know what you think. You know I’d love to see that sexy face of yours again!

 

I think that’s pretty much it. I told you, without you, my life is a total bore. Not even Louis and his wild antics can change that.

 

Oh, and “You can count on me, like 1, 2, 3, I’ll be there” :) (check out Track 6 on your new CD, will you?)

 

All my love,

 

Ni xxx
