My Playlist (Part Two) 5/2010

 [I am back working through my pretrial detention 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. You can find everything from my pretrial detention journal that is published under the “Pretrial Detention” link under topics on the right hand of your screen.

Continued from My Playlist (Part One) 5/2010.

This particular journal entry has three problems: 1) I cannot find the last page, which is where I put the date it was written; 2) it is therefore incomplete, and 3) it is rather long. It reads as if I wrote it before I gave up the idea of suicide altogether; it is a sort of intellectual history written as an elegy. It follows a piece dated to 5/10/2010. So, sometime in early May 2010 seems right.

As for length, I am doing as I do with all my very long piece, breaking up over several posts.

The links are, of course, now. No internet access while in pretrial detention.
