Letter to the Bank #2

Dear Bank,

I’m concerned. I have not heard from you. Is something wrong? Is it the fact that so many people are defaulting on their debts? I can see how that must be quite worrying. But you are not alone. I happen to know the whole world is quite concerned right now—VERY concerned. It appears that the banks, with the possible exception of yours (?), have extended loans that people clearly could not repay at absurdly favorable yet unsustainable interest. Do you not find that beyond belief?

I have to ask though—did you take the proposal I made in my last letter into consideration? It was a good one I think, one that could resolve our relationship quite nicely.
As I am courting you as a potential customer I am anxious to not get too heavy handed and therefore will keep up my end of the bargain and will keep paying down my credit cards for the time being. We will give it another thirty days—how about that? If you still have not returned my artwork in that time I shall be forced to assume my debts are now considered to be in a state of diminishment. We shall assume you are renting my artwork on a monthly basis. The monthly rental fee is:

Let me know if these terms are acceptable. No response shall be taken as a yes. Of course if you should prefer to buy the artwork outright that would be wonderful, or if you should chose to return it that would be wonderful too. I miss the succor and encouragement that particular drawing brings me. What a shame if your workforce should be deprived of the same!

Yours sincerely,

K
