Thanks for writing! I finished the transcription for your post.

I am sorry that you had to go through something like that with your ex. Not all BPD individuals are like that, though, but I get the sense that her behavioral patterns really had an effect on you. I wish you nothing but the best.

What a pretty poem.

Bravo, sir.
I did look back at your December 2014 post of another drawing. You certainly manage to convey something in these works. Can you share more?

This was quite the witty posting, sir. I wonder how many got the joke here? "Dihydrogen Monoxide" indeed. Clever.
I'll try to see about transcribing more of these for you and other bloggers, but it's really a pain as I no longer use a PC with proper keyboard.

As I peruse the vast vault of blogs here, one fact stands out as uniquely sad to me. There are many people over the years who have transcribed and written comments, some of them rather prolific even. Yet it seems many just give up at some point. I suppose I eventually will too. It makes me feel bad for those of you inside the walls though. I imagine it feels a bit of a loss when you hear from someone here with some regularity and then they simply vanish.

Thanks for writing! I finished transcribing your post. I love your writing! I can feel your passion and see that the poem uses rhythm as both a theme and structure to worship your beloved. It's evident you are magnetically drawn to her, and you really capture her beauty! Thank you for sharing!

Dymitri, American seems to thrive in "jumping-on" behavior. Whatever behavior is addressed a sort of "mob mentality" takes over and groupthink becomes the status quo. Social Media has exacerbated the problem by giving a forum by which polarized people can either shut up or risk the trolls themselves turning on them and swatting them like a gnat. Heaven forbid someone say, "Enough." There is a German word for taking enjoyment in seeing the suffering of others. When it is the very rich that is being scrutinized somehow the bar of evidence is lowered and the crowd will extract their vengeance, a pound for a pound, a tooth for a tooth. Four years is a punishment, that much is certain. Whether it is justice? Well, I can't rightly say. But when a jury says so, we must trust the system. No? Such is the dilemma of every incarcerated man or woman. Many a song has been written about injustice. Has any changed what is? Can't we all just be friends? No?

Hello Mr Wilkes. Entertaining post. It does indeed sound like misery to endure the conditions you've described. I'm sorry for you and all others who suffer this unnecessary torture.

I do wonder though, how it is that one's "messiness" causes you sleep deprivation. That sounds like a different sort of pet peeve?

Hello knucklehead.
I say that with a smile, no meanness is intended. I am now following multiple bloggers here. I feel yours are among the best if not the best. It doesn't matter if I agree with everything you say, I appreciate that you say it well, are often entertaining, and you make some of us think in ways perhaps we are not so accustomed to.
Now I have what I hope you will consider good news, sir. I searched your name, of course there is the usual flood of negativity associated with most individuals convicted of crimes in the United States. But there is much more as well. Now I give you the news: according to

Bloggers.feedspot.com/prison_blogs/

you have been named the top prison based blogger in the country or perhaps the world. It is hard to tell from the list but it ranks between the bars as the number 5 prison blog in the world, I believe, and below that is a list of the top bloggers, no numbers shown but you are on the list below roughly 6 or 7 other names, all of which appear to be free people associated with the sites themselves. Yours is the first name on the list with the label of "contributor".
So I think this is congratulations, Dymitri. We'll done. Please keep it up.
