Genre Round: Celebration

After another long and boring day at the office, nothing unusual happened; it was the same ‘ol same old. Nothing exciting seems to happen in life. As always, you clock out at precisely 5:00pm, and head for home, where, almost absentmindedly, you trudge up to the end of the driveway, and open the mailbox. A small letter falls, face down on the ground. Different from all the gray and brown bills neatly arranged in your hand, this piece of mail seems rather odd…

The envelope is covered in bright colourful splotches, as though someone had found a creative way to spill paint all over something! Intrigued, you pick up the letter and turn it over. On the front, written in prismatic ink, is an address that might be yours, but you cannot say for sure, as it reads “To the person with a life most dull!”. How strange this is, for there is no postmark, and the ‘stamp’ is drawn on using the same pen. You know of no-one who would have sent this. After glancing up and down the block, as though the sender might be lying in wait, you carefully open the letter. Inside, there is a slip of card stock, which is covered in sequins, ribbon and little happy doodles.

Upon further inspection, you find a tiny squiggle, which at first you think is just a slip of the pen, but it seems to be moving. Staring at it closely, you bringing the paper right up to the tip of your nose. Was it just a trick of the light? No, there it goes again! The squiggle is curling and uncurling one end, like a tail! The twisting stops, and the line unfolds. It bends and sways back and forth, as though dancing to music that only it can hear. Cautiously, but full of wonderment, you carefully touch it with the tip of your finger…

The squiggle stops dancing, straightens out for a moment and shudders. It quickly expands, wider, and wider until it fills the whole page! With great surprise, you discover that you are not holding a sheet of paper any longer, but a window into another dimension! You hear music, laughter and cheering on the other end. Is it a party? The window grows once more. It is now large enough for you to step through. The choice is yours: Will you join us?

Come along and celebrate, as we let our hair down, and experience the happiness and excitement of our third anniversary, at Genre!
