OCD Action

You can call it obsessive-compulsive,
or a complex, or something autistic,
a symbol of something unconscious,
an allergy, blockage, or tic,
it’s neither one thing or the other -
I just know it’s a terrible bother!

You can call me a neuro-divergent,
nerd, slightly autistic, disabled,
original, obstinate, gifted,
or, for heaven’s sake, “differently abled”.
I haven’t a regular shelf –
I rather like “genius”, myself!

You can call yourself doctor, neurologist,
a therapist, counsellor, maverick,
a dietary what’s-its-name expert,
a psychologist, or a psychic.
Call yourself all kinds of quack –
just so long as you always CALL BACK!
