Nothing

I want nothing from you

which is all I can expect

from an individual

who seeks anger to collect

Take away your false truths

and begin to select

jars of sympathy

and barrels of respect

Or continue to measure

every flaw and defect

Controlling my direction

Owning me only to correct

It will not occur again,

for the last time I checked,

I saw myself alone

completely bruised and wrecked

Firstly i would like to note this preticular rhyme scheme. I noted alot of your works have them as well, but this was the best of them, as for rhymes i am concerned. Also, superb closure. Thank you for it. Cant wait to read more.
Could you get a chance to check out some of my stuff, as it is not yet all critiqued and i would like to hear some.
Thanks! John S
