at least you’re consistent
you always say the right thing
after
you realize how you said the wrong thing

About This Poem: The poem "at least you're consistent tho" by Bryce Eldridge reflects on a pattern where someone offers corrective words only after recognizing their initial missteps, highlighting a cycle of habitual insensitivity followed by attempts at amends. This candid examination of interpersonal dynamics aligns with confessional poetry, a style where poets openly explore personal experiences and emotions. The poem's free verse structure, lacking a fixed rhyme scheme or meter, allows for a natural and conversational tone. Therefore, this piece can be classified as a confessional free verse poem.
