[Vincent]

My dear Theo,

Thank you very much for your 50 franc note

I spent the last on pastels

I'll probably buy some oils, or maybe fix my teeth

I promise that I'll use it well

Has your cold finally gone away? What about that pain?

If you come and visit for a day, I know you'll conquer that migraine

In this letter is a render, hastily drawn,

A picture of this perfect yellow house in Arles

I found all on my own

A place that I can finally call home

There's so much to say

Where to begin?

Anything you wanna add, Gauguin?

[Gauguin]

No.

My dear Toulouse,

This is great.

Has my judgement always been this poor?

[Vincent]

This is great!

[Gauguin]

Can you remind me what I'm even here for?

He's a amusingly confusing me, the torment never ends

[Vincent]

He's a brilliant artist and an even greater friend :)

[Gauguin]

Now I'm tired all the time

[Vincent]

I'm wide awake

Hey Paul? catch the turpentine!

[Gauguin]

I've made a huge mistake

[Vincent]

Everyday I'm getting better

[Gauguin]

Save me once you get this letter

[Theo]

My dear Vincent,

This is great

My distant brother, as it was always meant to be

[Vincent + Theo]

Let's not debate as we both recover

[Gauguin]

I came here to be an artist! Not a bureaucrat

You can charge a battery with all that candid flattery

There's nowhere in this house to hide from Vincent's verbal cyanide

I swear he's a maniac! ... Don't tell Theo I said that

My plan is working though my reward is overdue

Patience Paul, you've got to see it through

For now I'll play along

[Vincent]

Nothing could go wrong

[Theo]

Soon this will pay off

[Gauguin]

Soon this will pay off

[Vincent]

Soon this will pay off

[All]

Soon this will pay off

This is great

A fine arrangement

As it was always meant to be

[Theo]

You innovate!

[Vincent + Gauguin]

You pay our rent!

[Theo]

Take on the world-

[All]

Together

Ever yours-

[Vincent] Vincent

[Theo] Theo

[Gauguin] Paul

[Vincent]

P.S. did you receive my canvases

Watch out for the wet paint (Oh?)

P.P.S if it isn't too much trouble

Send another 50 franc
