GEEK

Jedidiah Bird

I am a geek
everyone tells me so
but if you think I envy them
and their happy lives, and happy loves
you do not credit me with enough
I am shunned by the popular crowd
and am always found alone in groups
but I revile in this fact!
I have no one to bother me
I have no one to love me either
but that fact is inconsequential
I am alone in the world
but the world cannot bring me down
I need not love, I need not happiness
for I am a geek
love by none, abhored by all.
