on the other hand

awesome poem
quick to the point, apparent!

before last year I would have agreed with the sentiment -- it is easy to -- until you have a child who is tortured by chemistry -- the smile might be a thank god I can finally do what I have been trying to do but couldn't couldn't! No matter how I tried, not matter how you tried, no matter how anyone tried, I just could not, it was torture. Don't deny the diabetic his insulin-- his body does not know how to make it.

and I do agree, it may be overused for children who could be doing okay with a little tolerance,acceptance and adaptation, patience and differentiated instruction... and in that case, shame on us for not being more open and flexible to people with differences!

We have to be careful, though, with these children who's bodies are craving what they cannot make or with too few receptors-- if we do not help them, they will help themselves, with self medication of drugs that are less friendly. I have seen it happening too many times~with the child saying I couldn't take being in my brain anymore, I needed to slow things down...etc

sincerely, your friendly, open minded teacher, mother, and one who recently gave up on the fight to do it alone....

my God

a 5 just isnt fucking high enough. I have a niece who NEEDS the meds but her mom sells them to buy crack. I have a nephew who takes about 4 different ones and he says it isnt still quite right. I am struggling with being ( and not wanting to be) a robot myself, my meds numb me, I stopped 4 days ago and have been writing ever since. Who knows how many people are being robbed of their creativity just because of some damned drug..something to thing about, excellent poem!! I especially love the tone and the no nonsense way you presented it, good work :)

Short and simple. . .

edit:
"of" = "off"

Problem

with the word "shrews" for a variety of reasons, probably not the word you want to use. (I'll email)
I liked very much, otherwise could be a little tighter.
Well worth a 90.
