I’m autistic
I’m not stupid
I’m not awkward
I’m not an epidemic
I do have feelings
I am empathetic
I can learn
I can create
Contrary to what the great poet RFK Jr. proclaimed
I can do things on my own
I can love
I can understand
I know how things work
Sometimes better than you
I can laugh
I can cry
I get upset
I get annoyed
These all make me who I am
A human
An equal
It is just sometimes I need support
But don't we all at some point
So please see me as a human
An autistic human
And be kind
