With poise our hearts are filled with peace
With every breath all pain does cease
With eyelids shut we see much more
With every bite we savour all
With every step we leave the chains
With every turn our lenses change
With each new dawn our minds are cleansed
Is this the life our world intends?

“Odd” – because I stand out from the crowd
“Weird” – because my tastes are not like yours
“Dysfunctional” – because my emotions cloud all else (at times)
“Fussy” – because I choose silence over chatter
“Stupid” – because it takes time to process your speech
“Lazy” – because reading stories is effortful
“Unfriendly” – because fake smiles are lost on me
“Unsociable” – because my own space is sacrosanct
Are these the labels you use to judge?
To deride, to define, to undermine?
Is there another way to see?
And challenge the things you think you see?
