I Want Your Fax
I want to be disability for you. Make new signs for you. They are saying things about us online in their underwear. The listserv is blowing up. Ableist verse, ableist verse and I’m talking to you. I’m a green circle for you and there you go again into my cover letters. Pinned your last dispatch to my Outlook so every day starts with you. Got your text. Got your chat. Got your tweet. Got you all over me. I want to be disability for you and capital crawl for you and accommodate you.
