By "citation" I assume that you mean you were served with citation in a lawsuit.

Inability to pay is not a defense to a debt suit.

To whom are you planning to write a letter? The creditor? The court?

You have a time limit for filing an answer; you should do so (depending on where they sued you - I assume that they sued you in your home jurisdiction), and pay the jury fee.
