Dear Ms. Tier,

I love your poetry. I love your poetry. I love your poetry. I am writing to tell
you how much I love your poetry. More than I can say. Lines like, "My dreams
would grow hair on a heron
I have douched a dead duck with maraschino
I have danced with Dahmer in my denims from the Gap
I hide an apricot beneath my Calvin Kleins"

Lines like those -- I don't begin to know what they mean yet they make me feel a
sense of awe and transcendence. I keep your book Angels Fly to the Largest
Shopping Mall in the Known Universe under my pillow, and it helps me get through
the times when college sucks. I believe poetry like yours makes a real
difference in the world. I believe it has the power to change things. I know it
keeps me going.

Your bio says you live in Manhattan. I am not that far away and if it would not
interrupt your writing schedule too much I would love to buy you dinner and tell
you in person how much your poetry means to me. I very much hope to hear from
you.
Fervidly yours,
Jeremy Bow

Dear Mr. Bow:

Thank you for your letter of unctuous praise. Thank you for not asking me to
read your poetry, answer twenty questions for your literature course, or
recommend your illustrations to my editor. You seem very nice; therefore please
be assured you do not want to meet me, as I am quite nasty.
Sincerely,
Chavadon Tier
