Another night melts away as the morning routine flirts with me, teases and prods me until I eventually climb out of my bed and begin another uneventful version of lately, a day like every other day.
You say I have a disability?
I have been told by people like you that I’m different,
That I’m unable to succeed,
People look down,
Because their words aren't right.
People look down,
Because they feel bad.
People look down,
Because they simply need to stare.

Berkeley, California - the birthplace of
Civil Rights for the Disabled,
The largest minority group in America;
50 million strong,
Young and old,
Rich and poor,
Incredibly diverse from the inside out.
