Autism Lives Matter

We are diagnosed  
By these faceless professionals  
Then the door is closed  
Left with amateur confessionals  
 
The reality all too clear  
Difference fuels fear
 
A flawed creation  
Flawed description  
Inclusion a cruel deception.  
Autism lives the graffiti inscription  
 
Normal doesn’t grasp it  
If it can’t clap it
 
We walk amongst you  
Walking sometimes undetected  
Expected to perform on cue  
So the data is collected
 
 Ignorance judging day by day  
Our voices never on display  
 
An experimental human  
Still an enigma  
The label an easy solution  
Giving us a tattooed stigma  
 
The epitaph will finally speak  
To those that truthfully seek
