 Through The Eyes Of A Poet...

Disabled; Yeah, Of The Mind?


Now I'm already like a potato couch,
Cos sitting is about as much as I can do,
But I can get room to room on my legs,
Oh, and I even drive a car too!!!
Yep, disabled people ‘can' drive!!!
Though I was told once that we're not!
But I proved them wrong, I did!
When I drove my car into its slot!

And a fella told me I was ‘a waste of space,'
And said; ‘you have no right to live!'
And yep, they were his words, honestly,
Though he didn't have a lot to give!
So I told him he was disabled of the mind,
He was shocked, not expecting a reply!
But I braved it out, went into Asda,
And hid down an isle while I had a cry!

I felt like nothing for a few minutes,
Then pulled myself together again,
Got my shopping, no time for stopping,
Cos I needed to get home before the rain!!

This girl did good!
He was a thug!
Tried to intimidate me...
He failed badly!
