Failed Inflections

I gotta work on my inflections,
Instead of being how I was labeled,
Instead of sounding autistic,
I gotta sound like a stereotypical confident prick,
I often fail at it,

I wasn’t pushed into theater,
Regardless,
I’d still be a failure,

At least I keep hanging in there,
Regardless if stuff gets better,

I give a lot of impressions,
And I project by assuming others’ projections,

I just,
Don’t have a natural ability,
For spot on,

INFLECTIONS
