Dear reader,

As I sit here trapped within the belly of the beast of the most active death penalty state in the union, I decided to write this introduction letter “to whom it may concern.”

I pray that whoever takes the time cut of their busy schedule to read this. That I finds you and you’re in the best of health and strength, and enjoying life, as if you were in paradise. A heaven on earth. As it was meant to be. Time has given me this opportunity to reach out of this dark and isolated place and give back what God has given me and that is life and love, and the pleasure is all mine.

I will begin this introduction by showing you the mystery that is me, the human being, not the number. I am an African American male, 26 years of age, born March 11th 1979. I grew up in Huston, Texas . I’m part of a large family which consists of three brothers, one sister, my mother and father. I have been incarcerated for seven years and on deathrow for six.

The environment in which I grew up in was infested with drugs, drug lords, pushers and prostitutes. And in my neighbourhood this was common place, and these became the role models of my youth. Pretty cars, fast money and women of little moral standards.

I’m seeking correspondence with someone who can shine a ray of sunshine in this dark and dreary place where good healthy human beings die every month of the year. And this scares the hell out of me. I consider myself an open minded person with honourable intentions, great expectations of thought’s and ambitions in life. I’m reaching out of this negative environment of harsh circumstances and hatred. Looking for some moral and emotional support. Just a little something to help me escape from this torture and mental cruelty in which I am surrounding by daily.

There are very few family members and friends who write to me, and that mares this isolation all the more difficult to deal with. A nightmare to which I can’t seem to wake up from. I want to show the world that I am not an animal, nor am I a menace to society, that cannot be rehabilitated. How can you mare that judgement of a 20 year old who has his whole life in front of him and cant even buy beer.

But this cruel state of Texas has labelled me this. How can I be when I was just a kid that made some bad decisions in life? Haven’t we all made mistakes? I still have a heart; I still have deep feelings of love for the human race. I still am learning and growing as a human being, so how can someone that doesn’t even know me just say that I can’t be rehabilitated and everyone believe it? That is so very wrong.

I am trying to overcome this injustice of the Texas justice system, and this is a struggle in which I know I can’t win alone, because all human beings need others to survive. No one lives in this world alone.

My hobbies were horse back riding, rodeoing and raising pit bulldogs. I am a football fanatic and I love music and singing. I don’t have much to offer, but you will get all of my devotion, loyalty, honesty and friendship. 

So in closing I hope that I have said something to capture your attention, because I will again give you what God has freely given me and that is friendship and love. So may God continue to bless you, and keep you.For the struggle of humanity is all of our responsibility.

Best wishes,

Mr Milton W. Mathis
