N NeurHidden Disability Poem
Humbling to all
Interesting to know
Disability can be
Deeply hidden
Enveloped in skin and brain
Neurological, cranial
Direct dirty looks
Internal turmoils
Sometimes I wish
A label was
Brazenly burned onto my body
In plain sight for all
Like a concentration camp stamp
Inmate
To help
You understand me
Wintertime
Parody from Porgee and Bess
Winter time
And the livin’ is shitty
Companies dumpin’
Hungry babies cry
0h the 1 % rich
Don’t worry about food for cookin’
Hush little baby don’t you cry
Hope a new day is dawnnin’
Open your eyes it’s just mingin’
We’ll stop standing these things
And we’ll march and we’ll strike
But til that forewarning
There’ w be T-V to calm you
With Netflix and Bezos standing
by
Wintertime
Covid’s makin’ me queasy
Gas & oil aint pumpin
Strugglin’ to get by
Disabled dead in a ditch
Stocks & Shares still procuring
Now hush little homeless
Get ready to die
