Disabled
          I am unable
         To sit at a table
Without pen and paper in hand
               Alright...

I am intellectually disabled
I need
Love, understanding, continuity
Stability and guidance
My needs are not so very
Different from yours...

    my brain fell out
  It ambled 'cross the table

  Stared at me

  Then pronounced me disabled...

There once was a lady named Liz
She could have made it in show biz
With the voice of an angel
She had me disabled
In a pop can, Liz was the fizz...

Alive wheelchairs and prams should 
hold hostage people who 
breach the condition of 
not permitting entry to 
the disabled into 
their buildings!

Healing, making well, curing, relating to a paralytic, exorcising demons
MLK laid the path for black rights and equality  
Was Jesus social issue not the ill and disabled, health and medicine?...

When buying milk and bread I almost dropped dead
Because when I looked at the labels they read
The bread may contain wheat
And topping that feat
Was that the milk may contain milk, so it said...

At the crossroad
I was knocked down
by a speeding horse
and galloped flowing his mane.
Oh, harbinger of hope,
please tell them,
I am permanently disabled
desparately waiting for their help....

Each Catch You Chase Will Have a Hitch

Each catch you chase will have a hitch;
May meet moron whose name is Mitch;
With Low IQ;
Always knew;
Like a disabled plane do have to ditch.

Disabled but undaunted
Into another phase he led;
with children's coloured cut-outs
A new form Matisse made-
Collage that would never fade

you took my work 
and claimed it as your own
i sat disabled and all alone

suffering in silent
i couldn't even see
today i'm still just 
a disabled poet call me...

Lost-- all of us--
No longer able to speak that unwritten language--
Sentenced to camps and environments unknown--
We are the stupid-Jews.

A farmer's wife who was not very nice
Mutilated a trio of disabled mice.
Each squeaked for its life
As she wielded her knife
And disencumbered them all of their tails in a trice....

I let my heart to fly like a kite
Holding the string tight

At her

All lanes kept locked down
To do no touch
To do no hug 
Disabled by default all 

Enemy of love
To harm my heart?

Jealousy of my love 
This Covid 19 teen?...

Not quite right

 I am old and disabled,
but i like to get out and about.
The other day i went to the Mall,
but the escalator was broken.
I don"t mind the stairs,
i get there in the end.

It"s the stares i hate
they never seem to end....

Once lived an old woman from Kalamazoo
She had been an animal trainer at the zoo
A tiger bit off her thumb,
She admitted it was dumb
But, with her left thumb gone, what else could she do?

Enabled and then disabled
To ascertain bliss stability
When no ego agenda tabled
Throb renews in continuity 

Game of choosing resonation
With God consciousness 
Love the only real vibration 
Imbibed in silence & stillness
