"reputation, reputation, o my reputation!"

let me stand before you
unabashed and unashamed
of who i am.

let me say this once so you can heard and digest
that i like the me that i see
even if you don't.

my qualities neither extravagant nor extrordinary
my beauty neither nor
none with truly matter.

just never insult my intelligence
nor belittle the shrewdness of my words
when i decide on cutting you up into shreds

or mean to forget.

in case you miss my point entirely
i just want to say that
i am happy.
