"So WHAT!" say I.

So what if I know the theme song
	to every cartoon by heart,
or consider my wonderful spiro-graph
	a priceless work of art.
So what if I ate Cap'n Crunch
	for dinner the other night,
or refuse to look beneath the bed,
	lest I die of fright.
So what, if on Christmas morn,
	I'm worse than any child,
or use my imagination to turn the woods
	into a jungle gone wild.
So what if I like to play
	in elaborate jungle gyms,
or stop to make funny faves
	in shiny new tire rims.
So what if I make unusual things
	out of tape and aluminum foil,
or eat all my ice-cream in one night,
	just so it won't spoil.
"So What!"  say I, an impish grin
	spreads slowly cross'd my fave.
"I'm not so different than anyone,
	in any human race.
I like to laugh, I like to smile,
	I'm amused by simple things.
To make me happy, a time toy
	beats out a dozen rings.
So look beyond my child-like ways,
	and you can see the pain
I feel, when everyone I know 
	forgets that I DO have a brain.
