My insanity causes inanity
'Tis proof I've no urbanity
Use profanity over mundanity
Feels my only quality is organity
Knowing my afterlife will be subterranity
Not intending to reference beliefs of Christianity
As I personally have no paganity
But wish greatly for some vanity
For my reflection shows a manatee
Living life amongst so much inhumanity
Is the cause of my disensanity
It is an endless circle of agony
And is due to my abnormality
Which is unfortunately my personality
What a dream it would seemingly be
To wake up with a rise in my low self-esteem
