| It seems clear to me that autism is the result of simple mutation. Human life is changing, making intelligence not only more important than physical ability, but absolutely necessary for survival. What good is social cooperation based on instinct, when logic is capable of delivering a better, more c... |

| I don't dislike the idea of dating, but if these are the choices.... Actually, they are. I won't date anyone who is religious. Psychotic delusions don't turn me on. The interests of girl #1 don't ring any bells for me. I have no idea what she likes, which probably means that I won't like it. Girl #2... |

| Thanks for your input MrXxx. I thought about changing the pattern a bit, but since this is my first poem, I wanted to keep it simple. I focused on writing what I felt, and I adhered to the AA BB pattern because it was easy and didn't distract from what I was doing. I also have a thing for consistenc... |

I don't see what you mean about line ten. I count eight syllables.
In answer to your question, this is the only poem I have ever written, and I have never submitted it anywhere but here. |

| I finished writing this poem recently, after dabbling for a while. I think it sums up how I view other people quite well. I'd like to know what other people think of it, if you can spare the time. Truth Knowledge, wisdom, understanding, Deeds of men all notwithstanding, Above all else I value these,... |

| I dunno what test it was that I took, but I scored 139 out of a possible 150. Which put me in the top 2%. 2% on a pretty fat curve though. |

If it wasn't rewarding people wouldn't play. The same goes for any other game. Poker anyone? Nobody complains when some guy blows his whole pay... |

| Just thought I'd toss in my two cents. And it comes in the form of a question. How can homosexuality be genetic? Because, bottom line, gay people do not reproduce. They don't pass on their genes, end of story. If there was a "gay gene" it would die out before it ever got started. Isn't that what nat... |

It is a bit long winded, but it is as concise as I can make it. Here it is: This letter is an attempt to explain myself. If you are reading this ... |

| All within 20 miles. Except for my sister who is in Montana right now. I live with my grandmother. Everyone else lives within the city limits. It's really just my grandmother, my brother, my aunt and uncle, and two cousins. I have no contact with the rest of my family. |

| I never have that problem. But that's probably because my intelligence is mainly geared toward language. Most aspies, and autistic as well have an area of expertise, and language is mine. |

| Emails might work, but that would require that I know people's email adresses. But mainly the problem is just that nobody seems interested. It's been too long this way. Also, I was entirely disconnected from most of my family since I was 9. I barely know them anymore. |

| No I haven't. I really don't know how. When I try to initiate a serious conversation with someone they don't really seem to understand what I'm doing. I have trouble finding a way to say what I want to say and they become disinterested. |
