The C.O. called count at 6 a.m. and I was wearing my greens and boots, ready for chow. I read a little of The Goldfinch, smiling the whole time. I briefly got paranoid, figuring some fellow inmates would see my dilated eyes and know. So, I decided to wear my reading glasses, unpolished, to throw everyone off.

Normally the walk to chow—down three flights of stairs, and up the walkway to the mess hall—was a bitch. When there was no wind, I was surrounded by clouds of cigarette smoke, and cigarette exhalations. These guys were chain smokers.

Today, I didn’t really care, just strolling along, nice and hungry. Breakfast was cracked wheat cereal, coffeecake, and apple juice. I was ravenous. I didn’t even feel sick when watching guys pour their milk over their coffeecake. We were all equals. No one was below me. This prison thing wasn’t so bad after all. And I could see clearly why the law wanted me locked up. I was a naughty boy.
