"A Poem Of Solitary," Poem By Juniper Aaliyah

I retain a noose around my neck,



The scars on my body glistening with otherworldly possessions.


I walk with my summit held down to avoid gazing at my echoed adumbration.


My mind fluctuates between unrealistic daydreams of prestige and acclaim; guitar solo pumping through my undivided foundation.


I look at the faces of my fellow inebriated, each having their own life stories tagged on the side of humankind.


As the knot starts to get firmer and more parsimonious I find myself struggling to think, symmetry and entropy throughout the ghetto streets of my hometown.


I retain a noose around my neck,


The flooring I remove with my bare hands.


To uncover what I've left behind,


Through this age of pure lunacy.
