"when i was 5, 6, 7
up until i was 11
my mom said my other mom left to get some milk,
the other moms and dads blamed it on my other mom
because she was a mom instead of a dad
but that didn't make any sense bc she beat me like a dad.

the nudges and the kicks,
no wonder she looked so buff,
my mom, the one that's here,
did track! and she only beats me when i do something wrong,
or if she had a bad day at work,
or if i do my hair in a weird way,
or if i get a B on my tests!

she said she does it cause she loves me,
and i love her too - she must be going through a lot,
i wish my other mom loved her as much as i did though,
i never see my mom, my other mom said she wanted to break up -
that made my mom really mad -
and she took me away from her.

thinking back on it, maybe my mom didn't like me all that much."
- one of the worst school show and tells to date
- what'd i show? my really cool black eye when i was 8!
- the teacher didn't think it was that cool and told me to go home
