My Poor Friend "Q"

My Poor Friend "Q"

               The letter "Q" has a very hard life as a letter.  It almost always has to be stuck with the letter "U", people always make fun of it saying it is only an "O" with line through it, and "Q' shows up rarely in the English language because it is considered a useless letter.
               "Q" and "U" are always paired for no reason. What if "Q" wanted to be alone for once. I mean how many just "Q" words can you name? One, Two maybe. There is about fifty-five words in the english language that have a free "Q". Plus the couple words that do are rare words such as qwertys. "Q" deserves freedom. Why should "Q" be bound to "U"? "Q" deserves freedom as much as toes need mustaches.
               Have you ever heard a person taunt the letter "Q"? If you have, you most likely are hanging around children. Children are being taught through their peers that "Q" is nothing more then a "O" with a line through it. Poor "Q".  I mean, what type of reputation is that?  The true origin of "Q" is that it was based off an ancient Egyptian hieroglyph. That is way cooler then a "O" with a line through it. "Q" is craving justice.
               Rare is a nice way of saying "Q" is practically not used. Yes, there is words with this fancy letter but, "Q" does not get enough time in the spotlight. I guess the argument can be made in both directions though, i think it is an awful occurrence for "Q". Nobody loves "Q".
               "Q" is my best friend and I feel sorry for the innocent letter. "Q" deserves more then this. No letter should experience this rejection. The poor "Q"!
