Cosmopolitan, suave and well articulated
I wish I had all these qualities
Instead I am blunt, outspoken to a fault
I wouldn’t say I’m provincial but not sophisticated either
I do have a bit of charm buried under A thick layer of self-effacing humor
I can only lay a claim to sincerity of thoughts and actions
I am but a simple soul, open and truthful

It’s a bit hard to confirm here, getting a test is nearly impossible. I’ll just see how I go tomorrow 🙄
