Why

She wrote her name on a study book
with an arrow that said 'who'
and she thought it over for an hour
and in the end she came up with nothing
and decided to just accept it
the book went back to the teacher
and she got in trouble for writing on the pages

She tried again on her bedroom wall
with an arrow that said 'WHo'
and she scribbled a million times
who who who
and she poundered as she wrote
and in the end she came no closer to the answer
and she decided to accept it.

She wrote it on the desk at school
with an arrow that said 'WHO'
and she put down one million question marks
and she forgot to listen to the teacher
as she thought about her question
and in the end she still had nothing
and she left without her answer

She wrote it on the inside of her leg
with an arrow that said 'Nothing'
and one million other negative words
and she took her brothers neck tie
and fastened it around the closets rail
the other end looped around her neck
and as she dropped, she found her answer.
