What’s interesting to understand
About me, is that I’m not a savant.
I didn’t get hit in the head
Or have epilepsy,
And then get extraordinary skills.
I understand social skills.
I’m not a genius.
I’m not smarter than everyone else.
I’m not better at thinking.
I’m just practiced at a skill.
I’m not autistic.
I was diagnosed with ADHD
But I have since been cured of it.
I can laser focus on something.
I don’t have obsessions.
None really.
Unless you count working on being a writer.
Unless you count trying to earn a dime on my novels.
Which, in America we call it work ethic.
We don’t call it an obsession.
I’m not crazy.
I’m normally right about my assumptions
Though people try to hide it
From me.
To know my assumptions
It would drive the normal person insane.
But, I get called an
Idiosavant, Autistic Genius Lunatic.
For that, the LORD has said the Meek among men
Are the ones who take the crown.
Truth is I’m just an average schmuck
With a peculiar gift.
I have a God who cares about me.
