I sold my soul to Santa,
but it's much too soon to tell.
If an everlasting Christmas
is preferable to hell....

A mom in the intelligentsia
went to a school in Philadelphia;
after taking an exam,
she's now a member of DAM:

Dyslexia is our superpower;
And from know-it-alls we never cower.
They torture one's head with tortuous talks;
Dyslexics instead think outside the box....

Poetic dyslexia
  the words juxtapose

The meaning in crisis
  where God only knows

Poetic dyslexia
  all feelings collide

Emotions in conflict
  —a verbal divide

I met an old women on the internet 
Her name was Paulette Paulette 
She always seemed so sad, because dyslexia...she had 
The poor women would always forget

I was questioned by my former in-laws
When you were taking care of the baby
placing the bathtub over the bathtub
Did you have modesty in your gaze?

I swear by God 
I tried with my passport
This led me to autism and dyslexia
Soon to be PTSD too!

for my entire life
I've always been on the brink
of annihilation

under a wooden desk
covering porcelain neck
the unforgiving sirens

a nuclear child
petrified of being exposed
to the fallout

seven years of age
stressed out by the alphabet
thoroughly dyslexic

Why
would
people
criticise
a child’s best efforts
because he does not measure up
to their own abilities and twisted reasoning?
Learning disorders are not to be looked down on; instead, motivation is the key.

Where my mind on my sleeve
I have s.p.e.(I know you will get it eventually)
and probably dyslexia
Playing golf with a wolf called Rolf
as you do
Where were meant wear
one plus one
The rain the bough
Brought the drought
Jamaican hair
I so dread
If there was no nothing how would we now...

Some of my poems you might have read
My spelling has been bad
Its because I am dyslexic
I've been like that since a lad.

At school I wasn't, clever
But I always tried my best
When it came to written work
It was something I detest.

Dyslexia now you know I have
It,s been with me all my life
Now if I want to spell a word
I just ask my wife....

Listen to poem:

Dyslexia 
David J Walker

I recall
	The wall 
Of words 

In jet black 
waves 
of ink

Invade 
the innocence of
paper white
  not quite 
a page

Fear 
	Panic
terror   
Rage

Other words 
smother 
like a thick 
denim quilt 
 

I hide within myself 
	lost
without a guide

a dance
	into a trance
of knowing only
nothingness...

My eyes does not itch,
But my brain does itch.
Eagle's eyes,curious teeth but timid brain,
Intuity did a lot of spelling rain. -

But i can't understand.
Comprehension had had me strand.
Willing eyes,indifferent cerebral,
Hopeful skull but brain's sick crawl.

Persaude my brain to agree with my eyes,
Wants to be free from this hell; Dyslexia.

My family is all mucked up she tells her date.
We have multiple diagnoses.
My dad is mentally deranged, a psychopath.
He has probably killed people.

My mom is a freak, she has early onset Alzheimer’s and depression.
My brother is a sociopath, and antisocial.
I am bipolar with dyslexia. 
I thought you would want to know before our third date.

We could still date, but you need to know that I am gay,
Her fast-thinking suiter fibbed....

Life is simple but not for me
It's just not easy doing ABC
People think that I'm lazy
I just thought I was going crazy
It's hard to do my work I find
Because It's always on my mind
Reading, writing and arithmetic
Do I reeally have to do it?
Not being able to read write or spell
Living in this bubble of hell
I try to escape from thoughts and strife
No one knows my secret life
Or the struggle that I face each day
Dyslexia is real and it won't go away..

I learned to read
thanks to Miss Kneeland
The principal at my gradeschool
Who had taught my daddy and his brother
Using a mirror
She was an old maid
About two hundred years old
With white hair in a bun
She looked severe
But she was kind
And she taught me to read
using a miror
Understanding what I needed
in 1958
She was a pioneer
who understood dyslexia
even though there was no name for it
back in the day.
I thank her for the gift of reading every day....

Even thought my poems is better then the average poet I would said people would not understand

How hard it was in school an especially in college where average person would write once or twice 

I would write three time and write a average of 200 papers but the requirement is 100 for associate of art and counting my credit it did not transfer it would be equivalent to a bachelor but lately I been looking at

Certification equal to bachelor degree I guess the glass cell is not broken....
