Here is a piece Micah wrote for an Alumni Theatre Company project in 2022:
​
I love you guys.
I love Margo. I love my mom. I love my dad. I love when my dad comes to help me and teach me. I love my niece and nephews. I love my friends.
I love… some things about my job.
I love my changes.
I love my van. My new, used truck. My camper.
I love the people that have let me move to their backyard.
I love that Margo now has a job.
I love making beautiful things of nothing.
I love my dogs.
Did I say I loved my van?
I love spring and summer
I love…
Gummi worms.
And I love chicken.
I love chicken.
I love being able to pay rent.
I love making beautiful things of nothing.
Like right now…
