Disability by Aaron Kiousis

What is a disability?
Who declares you are disabled?
Him, Her, Them?
From your Head to your toes
The unrighteous wars
Limbs ripped torso stripped to ribbons
In deserts and marsh lands
The bottle or a pill to fill the void
From the cradle to the grave
The Pampers to the Depends
Nubs from loose hubs
“Take my strange hand!”
Singing like a free bird
That’s locked in an eagle
These all come to mind when I think of disability.
But for every disability I feel likes the ability to overcome things that hold us back.
The ability to build character, strength, hope
The key word ABILITY
