A beach full of shells

This is one of a pair of poems I wrote in response to Ben asking, at the age of 24, for an autism assessment (see also link here to American football poem). This poem was an exercise in trying something new with an acrostic, trying a new format whilst getting the message across of how difficult it can be to be neurodiverse.
