 MY HANG-UP

 

They put me in a picture,

And hung me on the wall.

Secured me with a hook,

So I wouldn’t fall.

 

It gave me a paned outlook,

But I never make a sound.

With a single point of view,

I’ll just hang around.

 

They put me in a picture,

And correctly spelled my name.

My only hang-up is,

I feel like I’ve been framed.
