Oh Please

Oh please, don't tell anyone
how much you love your self
when all you remember
is your own name, how
you count every tiny
white flake for hair, where 
you don't remember what
is your mum's age (she says it
is a secret).

Oh please, don't tell anyone
how much you love this
world, how you cry when sharks
bleed for their fins, how pigs, 
chicken cry out for the last time
as you can't live without them
on your plate,
oh how wicked!

Oh please, don't tell anyone
how you cry in joy or grief,
even when watching TV,
or when this or that movie
star passes on, you feel
like passing on too.

P.S.: Oh please, this is not poetry...
