  1. He will learn how to build a good shiv in the juvinile system, perhaps he’s already been there. Jail does more harm than good.
    stick you in the rib cage
    when the guards aren’t looking
    shank you in the day yard
    amidst the falling leaves
    lurking in the shadows
    so I wont be detected
    You’ll commence to bleed when I stick you with my shiv
    to the tune Bringing In The Sheaves
