Me In a Rhyme

Underneath it all, boys seem the same. 
And I’m not interested in playing their game.
One of the most offensive to me…
“We should go out, cause you’re pretty.”
Don’t get me wrong, compliments are good.
But there’s a whole lot more under this hood.
Sarcasm and wit are mostly my quirks.
Which I personally find to be my best perks.
I like to dance, but twerking I do not.
I’m more of a sprinkler and a robot.
Half naked pictures of me you won’t find.
I don’t see the need, I have a mind.
I am defiant; don’t tell me what to do.
That pair you hate, just became my favorite shoe.
My house is quite messy, I like to hoard.
I have two children that never leave me bored.
All in all, that’s me in a rhyme.
So don’t even try it, if you ain’t got the time.
Maybe one day the aliens will near, 
And I’ll find the true love that I couldn’t find here.

I just came upon your poem, KL, and it's quite enjoyable. Love your descriptions...they fit the title well. Oh, I hear Mars is loaded with available inhabitants...but the commute is tough.
