Autism Factor (we evolved with you)
inflated myths
keep us
undercover
washing line
labels
distracting
alibis created
to justify
discrimination
an official secret
to keep us
unkwown
open the box
to the
public eye
let curisoty
light up
our shadows
don't deny
we exist
we have done so
since man
evolved
with the Earth
keep us
undercover
washing line
labels

alibis created

an official secret
to keep us

let curisoty

Thoughts of August
Looking out the window and staring at my thoughts as the teacher mumbles something about Mitochondria. Why can't I find a desk that does not have gum attached to the bottom of it?
As I try to concentrate on the teacher it hits me like a ton of bricks - we need milk at home. My teacher is now talking about the nucleus of the cell and it is not lost on me that this class feels like a different kind of cell.I think the board of education should introduce my xbox as part of the curriculum. i could probably pass that class with a solid B+.

Radio Autism
This is Radio Autism
Calling out to the world
Is there anybody out there?
We are on frequency
Just listen to what we have to say
It’s no mystery
We do speak a normal language
Turn the dial
Feel our rhythm
Out on the airwaves
Make a connection
Hear the beat of our weirdness
We might be out of step
But if you catch the hook
The music is the same
Don’t be scared to tune in
Radio Autism is a different sound
An alternative view
Of what goes on
In this ever changing...

Number Six
Since my diagnosis
Epiphany moment of clarity
All the years
Of struggle
Feelings of not quite being
Had a foundation of meaning
An autism one stop shop
Place of sanctuary
The harbour of choice
When the world
The mind
Gets far too much too handle
Find it hard to connect
Even In a community of writers
Was encouraged to write
To express
Address my thoughts
At number six
The support network
Is the only reason I’m alive
My umbilical cord
That gave a little...

Music Like Venom
Music Like Venom
The first notes
four chords of power
strike clean and true
too loud in my ears
idiot lights ignored
as music like venom
seeps deep in my skin
the silent intoxicant
a supple neurotoxin
as I lay down my mask
and trust my self
to just let go
and dare to dance
knowing no one can see
the masterful disaster
of dyspraxic, chaotic joy
Tchotchkes rattle in time
on the off beat of one
missed two and three
as my socks skim
safer than any skate
on asphalt or ice ...

A Work In Progress
Come in
Witness
How autism
Really works
Just keep your distance
Be captivated
By the surprises
That reveal
A different humanity
Please don’t touch
Are we evolution
A work in progress
Tolerated
More than accepted
Ignored by the blind
Be aware
This won’t go away
Prejudgment
Might slow us down
But won’t stop the tide
A pandemic
Is at hand
Our virus
Has been cultivated
Grown in the public eye
Watch out
We are among...

A Comfortable Mind ?
Want
A comfortable mind
One
That doesn’t look for every fault
Want
To lose the hurricane of thoughts
That
Plague me to stay awake
Need
The black void of normality
A comfortable mind
One
That doesn’t look for every fault

Capability (don't make me laugh)
Ability
Disability
What’s the difference
Always cunts out there
That think they know the score
If it don’t affect them
It don’t matter
When the shit comes
Remember don’t swallow it

Come back hate
Hit and hit till I am bleeding
Give me feeling
Need the disdain
To move again
Hit and hit till I am bleeding
Give me feeling
Need the disdain
