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

    Un Un
    It was an un day
    my special 
    un grasp of un reality, a special
    ism, that double very potentially helix
    Negative Death Spiral.
    Well it could have been without 
    You, Who 
    despite me saved me, always 
    again and always,
    saves me 
    from my un grasp of my un reality.
