Poetry thread

Lotus

I quite like writing poetry and so I thought I'd start a thread - please post your poems here. The first one I want to share is one I posted on another thread recently, about autistic people being typecast.

It's called "I don't wanna be typecast"

I don't wanna be typecast, I'm not a Tinpot

Unimportant, inferior or worthless, I'm not.

I'm not a savant, no genius IQ

But I'm not stupid, I can learn stuff too.

Don't think there is no emotion there

I have empathy, consideration and care

I don't wanna be typecast, no matter what we do

We're all individuals, I'm me and you're you

  • Here's another one, about bonfire night as it's 5th November today.

    Don't wanna remember the 5th of November

    For me, fun and frolics it's not

    Don't like the noise, don't like the smoke

    although others do like it a lot

    Don't like it when fireworks whizz, bang or pop

    Lights in the sky I don't wanna see

    A sparkler won't entice me out into the cold

    I just wanna watch my TV
