The Autistic Journal
Autism is always a hard pill to swallow, Like planting a bullet on the skull Drifted from life's wonders As if I've slipped away. Stigmatized like a cockroach And knocked back from footy. With my body soiled and discoloured Embarrassed and humiliated on the face. Mama asked me about school Hoping it was okay, Yet its darkness doesn't fade away Like living in the bull pit...

I'm sorry I'm autistic
I'm sorry I'm autistic, That I don't fit your expectations, I'm different, I know, But that doesn't mean I don't belong. I may rock, I may cry, But I try and try, To be normal in a world full of expectations. But I'm different, I know, So I'll make my own normal. I'm sorry I'm autistic, But I will never change....

To the child autism it is like being in this very deep well. You scream to be let out but no one can hear you. Your alone and so frustrated that no one can hear you So lonely, so dark Love is the light. Shine on the child brightly For when he emerges from that well. That child...

The Autistic One
I live in a translucent room with no door It has floor-to-ceiling glass windows. Like a two-way mirror I can see out But nobody can see in I am trapped! My life is like a hut in the middle of Daedalus finest maze he built for King Minos of Crete. There is no way in And no way out. I have tried to escape But to no avail I'm forever...

Is This the Way Autistic People Speak
In realms unseen, where thoughts entwine, Resides a world, unique and kind. A spectrum vast, where colors gleam, Autism's tapestry, a vibrant theme. In minds untamed, a symphony plays, A different rhythm, a wondrous maze. Perception's prism, kaleidoscope bright, Autistic souls embrace the light. With heightened senses, they explore, A sensory symphony they adore. Whispers loud, textures sing, Each sensation, a vibrant thing. They see the world...

Being An Autistic Black Man
Being a black man with autism is excellent, wonderful, and empowering, too. Being an autistic black man also means pure encouragement, inspiration, and uniqueness. That's how African Americans with autism see the world differently, which is why others should understand. I, on the other hand, realize there's nothing wrong with being an autistic black man,...

Finally found out why I felt so different for years Why I felt like I was always outside looking in Why my communication skills were never the best It only took 43 years of my life for someone to confirm this for me That Autistic is what I definitely am I don’t see it as a bad thing Just an explanation of why I was...

Premium Member Subliminal Autistic State Horizontal 8
Studious at the desk, disinclination to speak, Solid state of matter, I find impossible to pique, Engrossed in esoteric lingo, but all in his mind, Nonsensical gibberish, of language undefined, Attempting to engage, shows no interest in me, This room is totally empty, so far as he can see, Abstract images, behind eyes bereft of stares, I flick a torchlight, responsive...

We Autistic People Exist
Every autistic human being deserves to walk amongst all of society, including me. No one can ever cure us for autism; we just want people to understand us. This cold and heartless world we, as autistic human beings, live in right now should already know that autism exists everywhere and the entire world should be...

A Day In School, Thru Autistic Eyes
alarm goes off* I sit straight up startled and scared Just my alarm, I hit the button Get up and go to the bathroom I brush my teeth with my toothbrush Scratchy, painful bristles Toothpaste that makes me sick With the strong mint flavor Back to my room going thru clothes Too scratchy, too tight, too bright They all hurt in some way I grab my...

She’s not right. She has something wrong with her. She has a screw loose. She’s got problems. What is wrong with him? How do we fix that? I am no doctor but….
