I Am Perfect


I am perfect.

 

I have two pimples,

A permanent bad hair day,

Halfway decent grades.

 

I am horribly short-tempered,

Quick to take offense,

About as socially acceptable as a slap in the face.

 

I have an excessive fondness for chocolate,

Am terrible at sports,

And have a body shaped like a potato.

 

I am the self-deprecating

Introverted weirdo 

Who spends her weekends locked up in her room writing poems.

 

I am perfect.
