The Antagonist

For someone I knew and everyone who thinks big, muscular and southern equals stupid and easily duped. Surprise b*****s!!

You never listened
to a thing that I said
All you saw me for
was a big muscle head
Or maybe my accent
threw you off track
You thought gray matter
was something I lacked
I knew what you wanted
on that you were clear
you were running on
deception and fear
Behind your lies
was a devious mind
I saw through you
Every last time
You were an image
Well so am I
You never stopped
to wonder why
I always seemed
an impossible task
To get on your side
so you never asked
I heard what you said
I knew what you meant
It was all bullshit
You'll never repent
You can fool some of the people
But you'll never fool me
You can fool some of the people
But you'll never fool me

You are a master at setting a wonderful tone throughout all of your work, and this is no exception. Marvelously set, and I liked the format. The manipulative antagonist is one we all run into eventually, so this piece is easily relatable. I particularly loved this part here:
"I heard what you said
I knew what you meant
It was all bullshit
You'll never repent"

Great work!

Okay, first off, I read your note in the quote and almost spit out my drink... you tickle me with your conviction!..."Surprise b*tches!!".. Way to stand up Baby!
I felt your frustration...and I love the flow as well as your message, "you are not a fool"... I get that.
Great write!
