Re: postcard: castor & pollux.
[The card that is returned is used, written on by someone who is not Pollux. It's tucked in an enveloped and accompanied by a letter on lined paper.]
Castor,
This is Salome. I can't read it, but I like her story, and I found this card at the old antique store in town, and so I deviated from food items. The burger was very informative, and I intend to take everything it said to heart. Does the burger think everyone has problems? I think we're led to believe life is going to be all good things, but then it doesn't turn out that way. I always think I have the key, and that maybe I just haven't found the right lock yet. Maybe I think I have the right lock, but it turns out to be attached to the wrong door.
I just think I like chaos. I know that's not the right thing to say, Castor, and I know you might shake your head and not want to write with me any longer, but it's true. I like chaos and madness and things that make me feel alive. Peace sounds boring, but I haven't experienced it yet to know for sure.
Zeus was important, wasn't he? I think important people have more of a tendency to be jerks. Power brings out the worst in people, and you have to be really strong to have power and not abuse it.
I'm happy some days. I'm happy on Fridays and Sundays and sometimes on Wednesdays.
