Along with the production of these two accomplices into proportions of grand meaning, Genet remained utterly submissive to their lifestyles and wishes. In many respects he considered himself their whore, bitch, or slave and often craved to be so. The tone of Genet's words portray this longing for submission and the emotional power it represented in his life and role fulfillment. The concept of submission remained a recurrent theme throughout the text. I thus resolutely rejected a world which had rejected me.
Prison offers the same sense of security to the convict as does a royal palace to a king's guest.
The masonry the materials the proportions and the architecture are in harmony with a moral unity which makes these dwellings indestructible so long as the social form of which they are the symbols endures. The prison surrounds me with a perfect guarantee. I am sure that it was constructed for me- along with the Law Court, its annex, its monumental vestibule. Yet at times, Genet himself, would take on the role of master and see to it that others accept full indoctrination into the underclass world. Once again, Genet is providing the reader with valuable insights into deviance that have deep rooted symbolism and numerous criminological expressions.
