With the protection of an honorable designation of ‘high functioning’ Asperger’s Syndrome, the poet with some dignity and great effort, did manage to write a treasure trove of inspired poetry, but on the verge of achieving great fame and best seller status, the poet had the “high functioning”-status rug pulled right out from under him. With the slander epithet of “Autism on the wrong side of the spectrum rainbow”, nascent sales and dreams collapsed. The Fifth Edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual doomed Asperger’s Poetry: "Asperger's Syndrome" does not exist anymore; it is moribund. Although there is no gold at the end of the rainbow, there is still this legacy for study.
