Show, Don't Tell

The wannabe mime failed his class
No talking allowed thus, alas
His great “show & tell”
Just didn’t compel
And didn’t achieve him a pass

He thought he might try for some rhymes
Some clever ones, not verbal crimes
His frustrated yell
“I must show, not tell?!?!”
Reminds us of us, oftentimes


Author notes: sometimes, a limerick is just the right form
