Tail’s letter to the Head

Parul Banerjee posted under PenMuse-23 Poetry on 2020-10-20



Dear head, though we are in continuum And communicate always, I the tail Write to you to tell, how am considered Inferior by far and far lesser  Than what you are, because the head you are!   Since I occur far down and below you,  I am low and prosaic by all means But tell me is it so? As you are, am I not important? My talents perhaps Are so latent, that the world does not know!   Am formed from the same material as you From you, the neurons continue to me As you are important, at relaying   Your stalk I am doing exactly that!
