Dear
Burger King,
I
like your fries, but I am anorexic and generally don’t like to eat more
than one at a time. Also I have no limbs, they call me the “Human
Torso.” Perhaps you have seen me in a circus side show, I have performed
in many of them (by that I mean I stood there while people threw banana
wrappers at me).
You
see, my coworker Fleming died last week of a horrible pancreas
infliction. He’s the one who normally drags me around from place to
place. But now I can’t go anywhere, because I have no limbs (I probably
already said that, just making sure you knew). I was able to type this
letter by using my nose, and I am going to sign, fold, and address it
using various parts of my face. Tomorrow I plan on chucking it out the
window using my mouth at the precise time the mailman walks by, so it
knocks him unconscious. Then, when the EMS people arrive, I am hoping
that they take my letter to you.
Here
is my request, should you get this letter. I would like a fry delivered
to my house. Just one is all I need! Any more and I won’t eat them, I am
very picky. If it is still hot it would be highly appreciated!
Unfortunately Fleming locked my front door and I can’t open it, so just
barge in when you get here, you can use a crowbar if you like. Then come
up to my room and we’ll make a deal. I’ll give you sixteen cents for
that fry. If you want more, get my wallet. I won’t be able to do
anything about it anyway! Wait, I shouldn’t have typed that, since
there’s a thousand dollars in my wallet.
Anyway, please let me know about the fry thing. Remember, I can’t access
my mailbox, so let the mailman know when he takes your letter and/or fry
that he needs to break into my house. Thanks! May your skies be verdant
with the flowers of poetry.
Sincerely,

Kevin
