Dear Carol

Dear Carol...

Expressionism ... You think your own thoughts.

You want to please. You are afraid of conflict. You hate violence.

You just want to be ordinary.

You try to fit in.

But guess what? They don't seem to understand.

You're bewildered. Why do they react that way?

Well, get a mirror, girl, to see your face, when they say things that you think ain't logical ...

Good luck, girl.
