Rant
So yeah, you know how fucked I am.
How couldn’t you? Isn’t it obvious?
It’s not like I hide it or anything. Aye,
There’s the rub. I don’t. I flaunt
It about like a trophy. I’m so proud
Of my misery. Yeah, my scars are
Deeper than yours.
Idiot! How can you wonder why
They hate you? You’re just as
Pushy as they are. Silently,
You force your sins upon them.
Sin, Ha! I don’t even see them as bad.
I am who I am; and my decisions
Make me who I am. If it is truly
Wrong, then, undoubtedly, I’ll pay the
Price. Until then, I have no remorse
For hurting myself, no remorse for what I love.

This is probably the single most thought-out rant in history considering how perfectly the line breaks flow! I've had teachers who couldn't achieve this level of rhythm in their verse no matter how hard they tried. Do this with the other poem I commented on and it'll be a masterpiece as well!
