Cell door keys and Bobby Fischer

Stasi prison January 28, 1986

Steps outside the cell door.

Rattling of the door keys.

It’s always a shock.

“Will you work?”

“NOPE!”

SLAM.

My only extra-routine activity today.

Back to my court room play.

Back to Bobby Fischer.

How many extra days did I just buy?

Fuck you Mielke, fuck you Stasi!

Fuck you cell door keys!
