This poem profoundly affected me as a child, I remember crying to it because I thought it was so beautiful. I'm glad it's still here just so I can listen every once in a while.

"Does it taste like a nosebleed?" "Yea, like a nose buh-leed (bullied), only backwards." Brilliant.

What does this poem mean?? It’s so beautiful and I know there’s more to it but I’ve listened to much and can’t figure it out.

I think it's about a boy with autism and the kids who make fun of him.

I always felt that it's a poem that humanise a child whom is bullied because of their neuro divergence, and its about seeing them clearly and deeply and realising how magical their worldview us. A poem to comfort the afflicted but also to show how neuro-divergence is also a gift.

I know this is an old post, but I'd like to sign this for my deaf theatre class and I was wondering if I could get a copy of this poem. [email protected]

Since the audio has stopped working, I don't want anyone to miss out on the brilliance of this poem. So, I have transcribed it and the transcription is available here: lit.genius.com/Rives-gorgeous-annotated
