What happens in a Turkish prison....


Well, you hope it would stay in a Turkish prison but I'm glad Billy wrote his book because it opened my mind to a whole new genre of fantasies. I watched this on dvd with my mom and I asked her which prison she would most like to be locked up in, Sagmalicar or Shawshank? Mom said Shawshank because it looked pretty clean and she would like to share a cell with Red. I said the bull queers were sexy as hell but not as sexy as Hamidou and the Turkish guards. I would take Shawshank if I could be locked up with Floyd. He had a sweet face, a good sense of humor and such an infectious laugh! I'd read stories about horses to him after lights-out. He would read my favorite book about centaurs to me and then we would tickle each other and then we'd get into a brutal fist fight. It would be an old school, classic bare knuckle fight like John L. Sullivan and Jack Dempsey. Afterward we make up and spoon nekkid while Floyd tells me about how he waxed Andy's wife and the golf pro. While mom and I were having that conversation one of the old people living with my mom as a boarder reminded me that Floyd wasn't in Shawshank. He was in another prison where Tommy transferred from. I said, well, that sucks, then I choose Sagmalicar prison. Turkey is awesome.
