If that doesn't work I play with my kittens or work on another project. When push come to shove sometimes I just force myself to write words. Slowly they shape themselves into something worth keeping.(less)

Most likely the other prisoners were too far gone with fatigue and malnutrition to notice a little extra noise, and the guard lying on the floor of his cell was truly unconscious.
