My eyes don’t focus yet on places
Further than my parents’ faces
The centre of my world’s that breast
Where I’m the sole and honoured guest
It's something I am, not something I've got
Although that may seem a fine line
You can't separate us - oh no, you can not
It isn't Asperger's - it's mine!
Janine and many other poets/acts will be performing at this regular, monthly event. June's Poetry LGBT will be raising funds and awareness for Rainbow International LGBT Activist Solidarity Fund.
