#showandtell
Post your poem so I can share my thoughts, she says. That child that gets to share at show and tell in kindergarten. I get to talk to everyone about me, that little boy says. All proud of himself. Is it a hidden world where I am a star? When will it be the other kids' turn for show and tell? When I'm interested, he maintains. This world is about me when I focus on me, and about them when I focus on them. Is there a place not to share? Does this mean I listen to others by not sharing? Well, it certainly sets the ears to others than myself.

Hello Poetry
You pull me by my hair so I don't go nowhere Tell me you love me, but you treat me like I'm never there You say the cruelest words, you used to break my heart 'Cause I'm over here working my *** off Why is it so hard to see? (Why?) If I cut myself, I would bleed **** me) I'm just like you, you're like me Imperfect and human, are we? Show and tell I'm on display for all you ******* to see Show and tell Harsh words if you don't get a pic with me Buy and sell (buy and sell me, baby) Like I'm a product to society Art don't sell Unless you ****** every authority You beg and cry for more, he had 'em on the floor There are strangers takin' pictures of me when I ask "No more" It's really hard for me to say just how I feel I'm scared that I'll get thrown away like a banana peel Why is it so hard to see? (Why?) If I cut myself, I would bleed **** me) I'm just like you, you're like me Imperfect and human, are we? Show and tell (show and tell) I'm on display for all you ******* to see ******* to see) Show and tell (show and tell) Harsh words if you don't get a pic with me Buy and sell (buy and sell) Like I'm a product to society Art don't sell Unless you ****** every authority Show and tell Why can't you ******* hear me? Show and tell, um Are you listening yet? Show and tell (show and tell, baby) I'm on display for all you ******* to see ******* to see) Show and tell (oh) Harsh words if you don't get a pic with me Buy and sell Like I'm a product to society Art don't sell Unless you ****** every authority

Show and Tell (A Song By Melanie Martinez)
You pull me by my hair so I don't go nowhere Tell me you love me, but you treat me like I'm never there You say the cruelest words, you used to break my heart 'Cause I'm over here working my *** off Why is it so hard to see?
