falling around the cell block (cred to cassie for the line)

Which mangled cell is this?
To me it looks familiar.
Like I've been here before,
Maybe in a dream
(Or more like a nightmare).

Which mangled cell is this?
I've seen it somewhere before.
Have I been incarcerated
Without realizing it?
Where is this cell from?

Which mangled cell is this?
I recognize it now.
I find myself trapped
Within myself
In the cell in my mind.

Which mangled cell is this?
To me it looks familiar.
So here I am
Falling around the cell block
In my head.

    Great poem, I love the use of the prompt. This is really moving and a little mysterious, yet a little revealing as well. You leave me with so many questions with only half answers, that what I like about this poem so much, my eyes have finished reading it but my mind has not.
