Poetry thread

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

  • My computer is messing about, so I spent an hour on this. One for TheCatWoman maybe.

    Computer love.

    Unknown error you say, oh why won't you play,
    It worked fine before, but now not anymore.
    Frustration is clear, my time is quite dear,
    You seem to not care, my emotions laid bare.

    Reboot it again, I try to refrain,
    A piece of my mind, I want to be kind.
    My file was not saved, just need to be brave,
    Create it once more, you are such a bore.

    It's working right now, I feel it's quite good,
    Hurry to complete, faster than I should.
    Mistakes can be damned, it needs to be done,
    Enough, this will do, I think I have won.

    A-ha do you think, can't make it easy,
    This disk I'll corrupt, keeping you needy.
    This love is askew, you're stubborn and slow,
    I've had it with you, out the window you go.
