Hi I'm a writer on the spectrum

Hi,

I'm a writer as a hobby while I study for a Masters and I'm interested in exploring the experiences of people on the autism spectrum through a mix of poetry prose and short stories.

So I wanted to share some of my pieces which I thought might be a good for for here and ask about other art.

One of my major ones is Psyphonophoria based on how weird neurotypical people are at house parties and on the same site I have some other poems like this one called Arson Season

It hurts to hold this hissing light.
Sears the skin.
Leaves ugly scars.
Where it tears with acrid claws.

Screams if I try and creep to sleep.
Burns down dreams.
Bakes me awake, to be.
Seethed and drenched in leaden dred.

Suffocates each face.
Behind flickering red flags.
Brightens the light.
But makes the shadows starker.

Scares the sheep.
But scalds the wolf.
Warms my corpse.
And keeps me wise.

My sweet oblivious babe. I’m sorry you’ll inherit my head. Catch each contagious fear. And even if it’s never worth it. Please at least burn long enough.

To forgive me.

For sprinkling you with sparks.

I also wanted to ask about other creative works people do here and where they share it.

Regards,

Avouleance.
