Eat or just wish for food?

Eating nourishes and sustains us,

life begins with food.

Hankering accelerates into a hunger inside.

Being an autistic man I try

every day to actualize,

have more of what I desire.

I am simply too famined and

at mealtime I’m weary from starvation.

Eat nothing,

fattened at most by the smell of supper.

Pause, to eat in the company of love.

ARCHIVE - A Positive Framework

College for individuals with disabilities is an incredibly specious form of discrimination. For those of us who are in college, conscientious attention to disability loving learning allows us to hear better the arguments of attentive, reasonable colleagues. I’ll ask we don’t refer to disabilities as limitations best eradicated. I am more than my disease and I am just like anyone else. The smart fostering of respectful learning begins here. I am happy to have a thoughtful learning community.
