Do I write
suppose this is a poem
a collection of letters stringed to random words
and not a small voice
that emerges from between lines
that tries to find a way to be heard
suppose this is a child
muted, silenced, his fingers write
incomprehensible letters
which others cannot see
as language
would you say
miscommunication?
would you say
good riddance?
can you see him within
this twisted body, those
curled up legs
can you see his sharp mind
behind the strange façade...
can you?
