Poetry: What Makes me Angry? 2

This is the second draft of my poem. I'm sure I'll change the title at some point, but hey.

The main changes here: I'm trying to organise it into something resembling poetry. I've gone with a simple list form, but I still want to keep some of the visually different structure...

I hate:

When people don't listen.
"Nice weather today."
"How are you?" Not a thing.
"Nice weekend?" Bugger all.

Or worse, when they ask
you to say it again,
But they STILL don't listen!
Man, people are pain.

I Hate:

All those party people
Who wanna get drunk
"Come out, have fun!" Thanks
But I'll be in my bunk.

My paranoia
Keeps me at home
Watching my movies
And playing my games.

I HATE:

People leaving things out
Like the bread or the milk
Or worse, a cuppa
On the side, by the sink.

My brothers leave toys
All over the floor
They SCREAM and they SHOUT
And they always want more!

I HATE:

Youtube songs 
With lyrics that scroll
Made in movie maker
It's really too dull!

And I hate that I couldn't say this to you
If I met you on the street
And I hate that you'll pass everybody by
Without even trying to speak
To someone like me, with words but no voice
you and your bubble seem so very weak.

(And I hate writing poetry...)
