Okay, so like, I don't have an explanation planned out for this one, soooo....

Let's wing it.


To start off, this is an acrostic poem (ofc, what do you expect, it's a poem written by me lol) for Twenty One Pilots.


In the first stanza, with the first few lines, I'm trying to show that the Clique is unified, that a lot of us are the same.

How a lot of us have made mistakes we probably don't want to talk about, have done regretful things. I know I have. And I know too many others have made the same regretful action as I.

There's that feeling of wanting to erase those mistakes, but we can't erase them completely. Whether it be because there is a physical mark left to remind us or because it's something you can't simply let go.

The "Your skin is no longer your own" was kind of a reference to a Twenty One Pilots song, I think. Idk. It felt very Twenty One Pilots-y to me and I liked it as it kind of fit, so that's what I went with. Again, though, it still unifies the Clique to show we are one.


With the second stanza, the "ONE", I continue that unification of the Clique. How we are very similar in our stories, in what we've been through and in what Twenty One Pilots mean to us. Although each story is unique, we are all connected through similar details and share a similar love for this music.


In the last stanza, the "PILOTS", I discussed how there are people who may not understand why you are "obsessed" with this band, why they have so much meaning to you. How there may be people out there who listen to Twenty One Pilots for a short time, who may not have as much as an attachment to them as you, the latter being the ones referred to as "passersby". Sometimes, when people don't understand, they may try to change you, your "skin", but you shouldn't let them. Because "It's not theirs to change".
