Freestyle 3-12- 2013 (Part 3)

I am back working through my prison journal. It is out of order… Well, the order is as I have opened boxes. The date in the title is the date it was written. I hope this is not confusing. What you are reading is what you get for your tax dollars. Continued from Freestyle 3-12- 2013 (Part 2)sch 8/16/2025

Who do I expect to read these pieces? I have no specific idea. I doubt any relative mine, but one from Richmond. I have written some with him in mind. My sisters and their children do not share my interests. Perhaps what remains of my friends. The earlier pieces, which seem now lost in Canada, I wrote for and to my friends and acquaintances and family to apologize and atone for my crackup. I cannot say that even this piece is without a sense of atonement. Sometimes I write a piece with a friend in mind - one in Canada, one in Evansville, one in Tennessee - and sometimes to one who is not a friend. I realized last night the book talk is not only for Knoxville and T2, but also for LAH, and for myself. I wrote some with potential typists in mind - hoping to educate some, even at their age! After all, I am working on my own education. I also write for something more amorphous, uncertain - an unknown public. The intention being to show what prison life is for a first time offender; to show how their tax dollars get spent. That no one ever sees these essays is also a distinct possibility.

[Still don't know who I write for - there are posts that are meant to be notes for me to use in the future - check out the topic links at the right for my writing topics; some are reports of my daily activities so that the world and the federal government can know what I do each day - check out the link for the topic supervised release; and some are me venting my spleen - check out the politics link. Few posts must incite any interest, since almost no readers leave their comments. The hopes of having conversations are thereby nullified. All I can do is keep plugging away.
