...commemorating: a beige cover, with two corded strands, one black, one brown, each ending in sashes, framing the words "Michael Jackson: August 29, 1958 - June 25, 2009." It opens to a portrait of the artist in vivid color, holding flowers.

I had so many confrontations in my youth with girls that became disasters because nobody had the skills to express difficult emotions and have a difficult conversation.
