  • Dear Robin
    Hope you dont mind me writing, its just that theres more than one thing I
    need to ask you. If youre so anti-fashion, why not wear flares, instead of
    dressing down all the same. Its just that looking like that I can express
    my dissatisfaction.

    Dear Robin
    Let me explain, though youd never see in a million years. Keep quoting
    Cabaret, Berlin, Burroughs, J.G. Ballard, Duchamp, Beauvoir, Kerouac,
    Kierkegaard, Michael Rennie. I dont believe you really like Frank Sinatra.

    Dear Robin
    Youre always so happy, how the hell do you get your inspiration? Youre
    like a dumb patriot. If youre supposed to be so angry, why dont you fight
    and let me benefit from your right? Dont you know the only way to change
    things is to shoot men who arrange things, Dear Robin
    I would explain but youd never see in a million years. Well, youve made
    your rules, but we dont know that game, perhaps Id listen to your records
    but your logics far too lame and Id only waste three valuable minutes of
    my life with your insincerity.

    You see Robin, Im just searching for the young soul rebels, and I cant
    find them anywhere. Where have you hidden them?

    Maybe you should welcome the new soul vision.
