Prison Verse is a collection of poems written by Royall Douglass, published in 1911. The poems are inspired by his experiences as a prisoner in a federal penitentiary in Atlanta, Georgia. The book contains 24 poems that offer a glimpse into the life of a prisoner and the emotions that come with it. The poems are written in free verse and cover a range of topics, including loneliness, despair, hope, and redemption. Douglass also touches on social issues such as poverty, racism, and inequality, which he experienced firsthand during his time in prison. The book is a powerful reflection on the human experience and the resilience of the human spirit in the face of adversity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
