Call Me What You Will
                     By: Jordin Adams

Call me what you will, but I won't hear. Let alone pay mind to it.

I know im not the prettiest flower in the garden, but I havent gotten the water.

I know im not the fattest pig, but at least I won't go to the house of slaughter.

I know im not the quickest flash of lightning, but I'm easily captured and admired.

I know im not the fluffiest bunny, but all the grooming you get must make you tired.

Call me what you will but I won't get overtaken by fear, fear of the words you spit.

I know im not the smartest kid, but I work hard for the marks I receive.

I know im not the funniest clown, but I try to turn my pain into others seldom glee.

I know im not the normal one, the robot that everyone seems to praise.

And I know im not the child, that my parents wanted to perfectly raise.

So call me what you will, inside me, your words will not reside.

Call me what you will, just call me what you will.

But at least I have a place where I can thrive.
