This doesn't really suggest anything as a poem. I would change it to lyrics because that's what I and most others see in this. I think that in order to develope this into a poem you need some sort of story line. I think you also need some description in there at some point.

You said you don't usually swear in poems and I think some of it should be left out here. It is very distracting from the whole of the poem.

As for format I don't think the underscores are needed here. I think it would have the same effect if you left it at the begining of the line.

I do think that this would make a better song than it would a poem. I would consider changing it over, it would be nice as a song.

It's an original idea, but I don't think you've utilized it's potential to the maximum. You could have put a nice twist on it, or some clever images - instead it just feels a little like someone trying to rap to show how tough they are, and it doesn't feel right. You have, however, done a good job creating a narrator, and it's authentic - it just feels too unreal for me.

I could imagine it making a good rap!
Not sure if this is the right section for it, though...
Also, without meaning to be rude, what's a weeble?

To be a master of metaphor is the greatest thing by far. It is the one thing that cannot be learnt from others, and it is also a sign of genius.
