By all means, tell me about myself
Take me down the narrow passages of your mind
through the warped doorways of your reasoning and understanding
Reveal to me who I am

Use your vulgar and ignorant tongue to mangle every good thing
Underestimate me and judge me incorrectly
By all means, make yourself small in my eyes

Parade your completely irrevelant and incorrect opinions
In an attempt to put me back in my place...
Beneath your exalted feet

Go ahead, tell me about myself

Tell me again how foolish I've been
to naively make up my own mind and choose my own direction

Tell me of the superior intellect required
to so entirely misjudge not just one
but every single person you meet, see or hear about

Please astonish us
we are all waiting



If I don't say it...who will?

My feelings exactly. This is a well articulated piece, the words feel like knives. This was my favorite line:

"through the warped doorways of your reasoning and understanding"

Yeah, sometimes people just make you so crazy!  

Thank you for reading my ramblings.
