The Queen's First Letter From Heredom (from Queendom)
Dear Husband,
I have decided to unwrite my letter. I am unwriting the second sentence. And the third. I am unwriting the pigeon at my window, flying away as I open the window that I have unwritten. I am unwriting you opening an envelope, unfolding the letter that has yet to be written, or is being unwritten. I am unwriting I have decided to unwrite my letter. I am unsending it.
Unlove,
Un-Queen
