What I posted here earlier, in retrospect, was absurd. while i have kept the origional document, I relise it was not appropriate to publih it here. I hope no dammage was done. here, instead, is poetry.

I am not special;

Why should I be?

I have done nothing noteworthy

Not lead men in battle

Not climbed mountains.

Nor am I brave

I flee from danger

Wince at loud noises

In fact, I am a coward

Do not call me brave!

I simply have a condition

Nothing more. Just cerebral palsy.

I wobble, I drool, I talk through a machine;

Yet this does not make me special:

Simply different.

As different from anyone to anyone else,

And therefore it makes me simply human.

Neither brave nor special nor anything else

Just human.

So I am not special. Emphatically not.

I am not fucking special!
