I periodicly forget that sex is the basis of society...
Then I start. talking. again.

Stop telling me what COOL is.
I don't care.

If I was famous all these periods would make me. A Genius.
Maybe if I spell out L-I-F-E for everyone
Webster refuses to give me the real meaning
Doesn’t realize.
I don’t care about. verbs/nouns/conjunctions/adjectives.

You've been using periods very successfully, and I am wondering how you want the dashes to be interpreted by the reader. They work for the L-I-F-E because it is clear that you are spelling it out. However, here I get hung up wondering how this is meant to be read. It seems to interrupt the stuccato flow of this piece.

do you think you should follow verbs/nouns/conjunctions/adjectives with some form or punctuation or pause to seperate it from the next thought? Maybe follow your convention here and use a period?
It's a good poem, and, with a little tweaking, I think it could solidify into a self supporting piece.
