To All The Inaccessible Places

To all the inaccessible places

To all the inaccessible places,
I despise you to never let me in,
Never let me in,
To that bar .. which served shots,
To that restaurant.. which had a bad menu,
To all the public transportation,
Which doesn't have a room for my wheelchair
Those local markets,
That had mud pool everywhere,
I did take my wheelchair there,
One day,
The wheels stuck in the mud pool,
And the mud was all over my confidence,
I wanted to go home,
Away from those sympathetic eyes,
We took a bus,
And that was a mistake,
Conductor.. Unable to open the ramp,
Tried to lift up my wheelchair,
I felt like an object,
Putting me inside the bus,
Was a task,
Then all those eyes,
Glued upon me,
As if i am an alien,
Responsible for making the bus late,
I despise....
To those inaccessible places,
That I didn't get a chance to see,
Because the ramps were unavailable,
Because there wasn't any spaces,
At times,
In some of the restaurant,
Chair and tables,
Had to be removed,
To make the space,
For me and my wheelchair,
They haven't even handed me a menu,
Because I didn't seemed inteligent to the waiters,
I often think of these problems,
And I hate the fact that,
I don't have the freedom to travel,
In my own motherland,
I can't travel... Alone,
Because of the safety issues,
Or because if the inaccessible environment,
Or because society isn't sensible enough,
But there's something I could do,
Something  ... even if it's a drop in the ocean,
I can write about this,
And...
Maybe one fine day,
I will be able to travel in my country.
Without barriers....
