Dear Quinquecep

How lovely to have lunch with you today,

and how handsome you looked, if I might say.

I thought it remarkable, how with only two hands, you managed to feed five faces!

I’m sure no-one noticed soup dripping down your five chins in different places.

Remembering which mouth to open and which to shut is clearly an acquired skil .

And surely, if two heads had not slurped directly from the bowl, we would be there stil .

It was pure bad luck your fork got stuck in your fourth nose during the second course.

I could see it was painful from the way your other hand jerked so wildly - showering your first head in tomato sauce.

Such delightful conversations we all had, your five heads and I.

Entirely my fault of course, that we could not always quite see eye to eye.

Being a Cyclop puts me at a disadvantage I suppose.

But at least, I only ever have to wipe one nose.

But for you, my friend,

the task of wiping noses, never seems to end.

I’m sorry I had to leave you with an unshared bil , and just be gone.

I couldn’t wait while you put all your glasses on.

I knew that donning all your hats would take you time.

Especially with each head stil drinking wine.

Let’s meet again sometime and have more fun

Six heads are much more entertaining than just one!

Yours
