Another from the Bits & Pieces collection... as a blind person this piece has special significance to me...


Speak To Me

Do not
speak to me
loudly
so I might
hear you...
instead speak to me
softly so I might listen
and understand.

Your poem speaks loudly of the ignorance most people have for disability. I can only say that they need to walk in our shoes and experience what we experience for just one day and then their ignorance would go away.

Very sagacious write.
Education such as this, needs to be spread faster than bad news seems to.

Yes, I concur. Why would someone speak loud to a blind person? They aren't deaf, they are blind. I hope I wasn't one of those who spoke loudly to you in the past. If I did, it was done without thinking.
