Pretty Petty’s Poem for the Disabled
Hello Pretty Pets, how are you doing?
Let us introduced ourselves: we’re Amanda D. Petty and Eric Brown, and we’re poets. This is a very special issue or version that we’re doing. We are disabled or handicapped too. Amanda has Spastic Cerebral Palsy. Eric has High Functioning Autistic. If you want to know more about us, Amanda wrote a very powerful paper about “Being Handicapped”.

In 2001, Amanda discovered poetry by an accident. In 2012, she thought of creating an online business: “Pretty Petty Poetry”. This version is a part of our business.
Many people are like this towards the handicapped, and I do not understand it. My families and my friends just sees me as normal. Why can’t you?
I’m Different
By-Amanda D. Petty
Adults and Children stare at me
And I do grasp on it.
People do talk
And I don’t care anymore.
I’m different.
So.
Wheelchairs are my best friends.
Ramps are the way I go.
Disabled is what I am.
Deal with it.
I have, for years.
People may feel sorry
And I really don’t comprehend.
Contract with this fact;
I’m different.
