this aint towards me or anyone i know but it gets the pointn through to poeple

Call me a retard
If that's what you think I am
Look down on me as if I'm not a human being
If that's what you feel you must do
Treat me like dirt to make your own life feel praise worthy
I want you to know how this makes me feel though

When you think I'm dumb
It makes me wish I was
When you look at me as less then human
I certainly feel it
When you treat me like dirt
I cry myself to sleep

I'm tired of crying myself to sleep
Society is a cruel punishment

It's a wheelchair
Get over it

sat

is good to face this things with a sense of poise and rationality

Loved it.. great point.. nonetheless.. it could've been a little more structured.. I think it would add to the poem a bit.. but.. all over.. it was great. I love how you used your poetry to explain this.. and the last two lines.. were just perfect for this..

Desire nothing except desirelessness. Hope for nothing except to rise above all hopes.

I really like this one. Yeah well i have a learning disability, and sometimes my brother teases me about it. Only because he's alot smarter than me. So i understand what you are going throgh, but in a different way. If you get what i mean.
