It is one of the hard poems to memorize. It's hard because it keeps saying yes, exactly what, and me who. Trista from United States Comment 23 of 24, added on May 10th, 2008 at 9:12 PM. The book this poem is in, A Light in the Attic, has wonderful illustrations, also by Silverstein. Those who find the poem confusing need to get hold of the book and look at the picture of the MeeHoo with her ExactlyWhat.
