Take A Second Look
In a café far away
Or so the stories say.
No one glares with a ‘tut tut tutter
Manners to disgrace a pig’ they utter.
I can be normal, in my world
We have no so-called graces.
No pointy-pinkies rising from the cup.
NOW! Take a second look!
A cradled soul, staring at an alien world.
Nothing makes sense
Just nurse me with what I know.
My crazy-paving world had a normal day
In an Autistic Café, far far away.
