Inspired By Art: Untitled (Keeping Clean)
Keeping clean
Staying up
How
Gotta get it
How I’mma get it
No, no
Ay it ain’t no other way
Yeah it is but it slipped my mind
Consequences
Jail.

This poem is very compelling. It uses few words but clearly articulates the thought processes that occurred. It is vague, but the vagueness allows the reader to use their imagination to fill in the blanks with their own answers.
Thank you for sharing your words. I really appreciate them.
