Imagery. It’s what I do, and it’s the backbone of the poems on this site.
I can’t help it: I write nothing but poems with imagery. Blame the Asperger Syndrome: the visual thinking’s a gift. The photograph dazzle world inside my head leaks out through my pen. I collect everything: stars, planets, and the occasional stray comet; angel wings and devil horns; photographs of every kind; old films and orphaned lyrics; dreams and nightmares. The camera has been on and recording as far back as I can remember.
So come on in. See what I see. See what you’ve seen before, but through a different lens. Open the door and peek inside. Or come right on in. Feel free to listen and look. If you like what you see and hear, you can take some home with you or come back for more. Or you can peer behind the curtain.

hello nicole… thank you for a most excellent intro to cleave.. i’ve been bitten and i don’t think i can’t help myself to this new form of poetry… !!!
Thanks Nicole for liking my cleave poem.
Good for you, Neil, for taking the bull by the horns! Now at least we have someplace to organize and get started. I just want to say that I’m dealing with some serious family medical issues and now I’m coming down with something flu-like to boot. Again. *sigh* So it may be a while before I can actually contribute – even my own blog is being neglected right now. But I most definitely want to be a part of We Write Poems (love the name) and hope to contribute in some way to prompt ideas in the future. Near future, I hope.
very interesting blog
Greetings

Gabcast is discontinuing a fine site. Are there other sites for poets to record their poetry? By the way,I enjoy your site. thanks,peace…
Thanks for taking me to your marvelous site… and bless you!
I love your poetry so much. I particularly like hearing you read ‘You Don’t See It’, it made me cry – your imagery is so amazing.
Nicole,
Could you please send me the password again?
The one I have doesn’t work.
Pamela
Nicole I am not sure how I do it, but I keep losing your password, argh!
Please send it to me, so I may read your poem.
Thanks,
Pamela
Nicole, my daughter has Asperger’s as well, and she is an artist as well as a musician (drums). I’m bipolar and consider it a gift as well – that alternate take on the universe is much needed from us, just as much as we need the self-expression!
Peace, Amy
I to have Asperger’s and am a writer, so my dad found this site for me. I must say your poem you don’t see it fits perfectly with how my dad, my brother and I are. I wish I could write poems like that but I just write stories.
You have an interesting blog.
Do you know Alien Hippy’s blog? http://alienhippy.wordpress.com/ She only discovered as an adult that she had Asperger’s. She writes simply and with heart and does a lot to educate others about the condition, just by being herself. Well worth a look.
What a well put-together site. Good work and thanks so much for sharing all this! You certainly do have a way with words.
Would love to have your password and take a peek and your work.

Hey, I was looking at this site and was wondering if you could help me find some good poetry events around central Ohio. I have a group that is very interested in attending. please let me know.
hummon_b1@denison.edu
I have been missing your verse because I also do not have the passkey. Could you send it to me too.
I was looking forward to the difference between crows and ravens.
I am very inspired by your writing, and I even shared a link to your essays on Paul Robeson on a website I co-organize on Meetup.com. It’s a group specifically for African Americans with Asperger’s either diagnosed or undiagnosed. It’s a very small group but we had our first meeting for dinner last Tuesday night at it was very encouraging. Thanks for sharing and thanks for the inspiration. Please check out the meetup if you get a chance. I’m going to definitely be enjoying your writing from on.
From one Raven to another – nice to find you.
Amazing collection here. Loved it. Can I get a blogroll here? I am a poet too. Check my blog. Its just been couple days since I got here. Would post more soon : The Chime of A Forgotten Melody (http://godoffinethings.blogspot.in/)
