What Should You Hide Friend?

When you 
step up to 
     the mike
How much should 
you reveal? 
How long should you
let the light shine on you?
   Some tell all - confessional poetry 
(I have heard) offers 
a good soul 
purging 
even as dawn 
approaches 
          we feel like 
we should open 
up!
But 
How much to tell?
How much to ?
How much!!!!
