steganography - This is NOT a riddle puzzle



Riddle me this:


I am not a riddle.
Although I may look like one, I am not.
I am hearing you call me a riddle, so...
Since riddles can't hear, I mustn't be one!

I assure you, I am not a riddle.



Can you believe that I'm not a riddle?
And can you believe that I'm telling the truth?
Now, I am more unusual than a riddle.
The truth here is that I am literally 'I', just me...
Oh, nevermind. I can't organise my thoughts, I'm not particularly interested in this riddle - I mean not a riddle!



Really, it's not a riddle. But I'm going to ask it anyway:




What am I? I won't always be this, so perhaps a better question is:
What am I right now?


(EDIT for clarification: the answer will use information from EVERY line in the riddle)



Answer



You are



Rather bored.



Explanation:




The first letters in each line of the second verse, along with the first letter of the first line after the yellow box, read out CANTOR. This gives away that we need to read the diagonal. If you take the $n$th letter of the $n$th line in every line inside the yellow box, this is what you get.
