Oh, turpentine
meet Caroline.

She's diverting and lovely,
but no painter.

Completely misses a warning
on the container.

Her skin is pale
and thin as paper.

In contact with the flame
she turns to vapor.
Stanley Wilkin Dec 2016
Her leaving suited her
Better than her arrival,
Her returning
Better than her going.
