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

  • i think that’s why they chose that word, because if it is 2 syllables, like you say, then saying ma-nure, putting stress on the second syllable (being ‘nure’), it definitely is like you are about to throw up. Almost like you are in a field of animal waste, stinking up your nose, and clogging your lungs with poo stink.
