On display

This piece was edited drastically from its original version based on the critiques I received. Hopefully this goes some ways towards addressing the issues the original piece had.

I put myself on display for you

to find connection and ignore pain.

--

I like to be open and honest--

perhaps to a fault.

--

While I don't show it all,

I do show a lot.

--

Enough about me.

I'd rather hear about you.

--

What makes you do the happy dance?

What's owie?

--

What keeps you up at night?

What makes you get out of bed?

--

Will you be real?

Will you put yourself on display?
