Autism in particular and neurodivergence in general are becoming better understood as each year passes. Stereotypes that used to be applied are found to be incomplete at best. Every autistic person's experience is unique with many variations within the group. Of increasing interest is the experience of older adults newly diagnosed with autism. How does one understand and gain insights when considering a life viewed backwards through the lens of autism? This book is a personal exploration of the process created in the hope that others may draw some comfort in the shared experiences. The author is a man in his late sixties only recently diagnosed as autistic. Looking back over his life, he finds many of the signs were always present but misunderstood at the time.

We rarely get to choose our own legacy. The author, Jeff Burton, selected this poetry collection to represent what he considers his best work. Edited out are the too-often self-indulgent, self-concerned, self-pitying and pretentious efforts that have littered previous volumes. Missing too is the whimsical and comic which can be found in collections dedicated to those forms. Instead, this collection is serious poetry, hopefully not tediously serious, but at least with serious themes. Neither is this poetry didactic. You will find no hectoring verse lectures here. At its best, this poetry is suggestive, an invitation to reflection and further exploration. These poems are 'jumping off points', influenced by Sufi tales, Buddhist parables and mysticism. These are poems to be read at leisure on Autumnal afternoons with copious cups of tea or glasses of wine accompanied by much staring at the ceiling.
