Tormentor

Feeling puffed up in your chest At the fruits of my design. Let them think what I've expressed Somehow, even at my best, Exists as your art—not as mine. Pat my head and all the while, Realize it's not your work; It has always been your style. Disingenuously smile— Egotistic, selfish jerk!

That's a poem with a lot of resentment in it. Great acrostic, and just as your other two poems here: it flows and meter is just fine.
