Please call me cripple

Cripple

May be drivel

That makes you snivel

But live a little

It ain’t evil


Its painful

Language colorful

Dreadful, unlawful

But wrong?

I’m doubtful


Cause there’s a flame of pain

In the game of my maimed legs

And with pain cripple’s a good label

Shame only came with the name

Differently abled


Cause any two people are differently abled

One walks on a cable

The other runs some facilities

They have different abilities


But I can’t walk

I limp, I lost

That ability

And the nature of differently

Abled reeks of placid ignorance

And people staring at my feet
