SWP
I work in special education
I see people who lack
The ability to
See what others see
Feel what others feel
And suffer alongside those who suffer

These people all carry with them
Labels
Stamped on them to make it easier
For those who don't know them
To have a baseline on which to proceed
In the relationship

These labels can be words like
Autistic
They can be abbreviations like
OCD
For Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
But they are labels and as such are telling

So a new one for our age

SWP
Stupid White People
Has to be a new epidemic
I see them in my news feed on Facebook
Every day
Lined up around ****** fried chicken stores
Out in front of offices offering services for women's health

Don't hate them
Feel compassion and try to help them understand
But with the knowledge that they don't have the capacity
To do so
For just like those
in Special Ed
Thier god made them that way
