Nerd

I am a nerd.
A textbook nerd.
Glasses, braces, acne, freckles, a giant graphing calculator,
(It actually clips to my belt)
I play DnD in a basement.
I've played WoW, DDO, SWOTOR, LOTRO
Kids had MySpace- I had Runescape
Kids got FaceBook- I got Pokémon.
Boys got girlfriends
Girls got boyfriends
I got Steam.
I can take off the glasses,
I can hide the braces,
I can unclip the calculator,
But I cannot unclip who I am.
I am a nerd,
A textbook nerd
And I'm alright with that.
