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!
