Lindsey Goodrich reads “I’m Rightly Rogue” a poem from Noah’s book “Noah Rising”
“I’m Rightly Rogue”
Rogue mind likes to talk about Watches
Tons of kind thoughts interest me
but stay lifeless on my tongue
I wish they would interest my mouth
and make an appearance today
Noah is a writer and a poet. He also has autism and apraxia of speech. This makes it challenging for him to express himself intently. His life changed when his parents discovered “spelling,” a way of communicating through a letter-board or keyboard.
When you realize Noah has apraxia, this poem means more. How does it feel to have thoughts you can’t express? Those thoughts that “stay lifeless” on your tongue. What do you think about Noah’s poem?
Watch Noah’s full story on our YouTube channel or on our website. Links in the bio.
