autistic poem
Location
to my autistic brothers and sisters
who suffer autism
don't ever think for one single solitary second
that you buy into the notion that you have limitations
perception is you are deficient
but it what you do that inspires you to be efficient
you hear it on the news
about people who suffer autism
missing for days
one was found in cleveland and he is from new jersey
the other wasn't found yet
wondering innocently
unable to speak verbally
in places of unfimiliarity
easily vulnerable to sex offenders
hope you are found soon avante oquendo
in safe hands
not in irresponsible ones
because we all know what the outcome is
help these kids develop into good young men and women
keep them safe
they may be label autistic
but let's be realistic
they should never be treated as statistics
