Genesis

unicorns exist
- anon
​
unicorns were known to tread delicately
dropping like the snowflakes
that fell and danced
on her porch in the winter
but they were never real
they can’t be
they were too mysterious
and untouchable
the little girl watched such
revelations fall beyond her
behind her and below her
and didn’t notice
that a shiny coat of white
and a horny littered with love
was approaching her
behind her back

jeremiah p. tidey (him)
poet
jeremiah p. tidey is the poet of "Sunshine" in issue 27.
A full-time nerd and chemist by day, j.p.t. sees sceptical eyes when he claims an affinity for poetry. Nevertheless, he started writing in his early teens, toying with words as if they could themselves balance as chemical equations. What began as a self-taught endeavour of self-gratification saw more recently a concerted effort to paint something more artistic, with any due thanks owed to Reddit’s OCPoetry community. j.p.t. is deeply honoured to have been invited to submit to the poetry juicebox and apologises for the lack of happy endings, … c’est la vie!
