Yes,

When I was packaged, inspiration's where not included.

Err, not quite sure what you mean by that. I'm specifically referring to the words: Mr Anderson, thinks that everything inside of him, is worthless and embarrassing. And thereafter shows an uncomfortable demeanour, one lacking in confidence.

I require that type of kick in the but sometimes (if not always) to be inspired.

Meaning that I am very creative, but it is always inspired by others.

"shows an uncomfortable demeanour, one lacking in confidence"

story of my life, unless I am obsessing over something.

Creatively of course.

"[...] worthless and embarrassing [...]" I can relate to, but that would not be why I could not have written a poem.

If I got dragged to the front of the class like that I would freeze and be unable to comply. I wonder what that teacher would have made of that: "You've a mouse in you after all."

And the second I got touched I'd have bolted from the room.

Sounds a bit like me too. Man, this movie reminds me so much of High School. I wish I had a teacher which would have helped me to get out of my shell. But as you can see, the teacher is trying to help the boy. In my position, the teacher would have probably done it, to destroy my little confidence even more.

I probably would have bolted from the room as well.
