Tell me about you

I would like the writer to describe yourself to me. No particular style, rhyme, or reason. Whether it be a specific incident, how you feel about yourself, how you view yourself, battles with yourself, what you like about yourself, what you hate, etc.

I don't mind cussing, religiousness, addictions, drugs, erotica (be tasteful)...

ANYTHING GOES!

Rules:

-No prewrites (message me if you absolutely have one that you want to use)
-Please no dirty pretty (only if that is whom you truly are )
-Most important : don't put your name in the poem, and please don't over use "I" or "me" (feel free to write about yourself in the third person)
-Be nice, if you don't have anything nice to comment about, then don't comment

Be creative! I want to know a little about you through your writing!

Feel free to be as dark, happy, or as funny as you want to be
