The Beautiful Letter by avidd opolis

June 26th, 2006 2:57 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: Create a love letter (either real or ficticious). Figure out a way to distribute it such that either:

(A) it is viewed by a great number of people, or
(B) it is viewed by a very small number of people but as a result it completely blows their minds.

As an example of (A) consider the following:

Spiral Love Letter: Helen has vanished, and one of her admirers writes her a love letter. To impress her, he divides the letter into eighteen parts, and prints each part on a separate US Priority Mail sticker. The letter contains prose, poetry, a brief play, e-theory, and several hyperlinks (printed in blue) to significant project websites. He places the stickers on street corners in downtown Chicago, starting at Washington and Dearborn and ending at Monroe and Wabash. There are four of the same stickers per intersection, one on each corner. Each sticker lists the intersection before and after, such that readers can follow the chain of stickers to read the letter in its entirety. The path they must follow forms a spiral that progresses past the Art Institute to the Palmer House Hotel. There, the letter indicates that the reader should "go up" and contains instructions for ascending to the roof of the hotel. On the roof they find a piece of paper with more plot information in a ziploc bag.

As an example of (B), consider if the love letter were inserted into a random file in an office in which you do not work.

Two letters were left in a busy elevator on consecutive days. Written on the back of noah's bagel bags. They read:
******
You are the most beautiful human being I have ever known. Please love back. I need you like the wind needs the trees. They don’t know you. They will not ever care about you like I do. I know that underneath your business attire you are beautiful. And when I say that I’m not talking about you naked, “under your business attire” is a metaphor.
Because on the outside you are cold and competitive because you think the world makes you do it. But you don’t know your own strength. FLIP (arrow)


I love you because I see past all that.
I long to be close to you. I love you so much,
I don’t even care if you like me or if you think I’m som disgusting creature.
If that’s what you think I’m okay with that,
It doesn’t change how beautiful you are.
I fear that if my love goes unrequieted I
Simply cannot go on living, but I don’t want that
To trouble you. You know who you are and
You know who I am so if there has ever
Been a time it is now. Meet me at our
Spot by the fountain.
I will be there longing for you as ever
Please Love Back

********
Second letter

You didn’t meet me.
That’s okay. I still love you.
I still reckognize how beautiful
You are. But now
I realize I am not good enough
For you. And that’s okay.
I’ll just disappear.

Black Dot.
