This is something you think up to have a chuckle. Or, recite to friends to have a good laugh. Bring it to your mentors, and they'll explain why it is bad. Real editor will advise lending its space on page to better poems.

I still don't believe she is unironically proud of that.

This post is too trivial, and should've not been posted.

>>12006523
There should be a game where you have to identify which is which from real and satirical versions of her """""poetry"""""

This board should put together a compilation of poems of similar quality - should take no more than a day

Stop culturally appropriating my work, you menstruating poet.

>>12006523
I don't get why /lit/ is so triggered by this book.

It's just a book riding the feminist trend. Nobody whose opinion actually matters is thinking this is genuinely good poetry.

>>12008833
>menstruating
But how did you know?

>>12008846
Feminist poetry IS good poetry. The expression of a a non hegemonic voice is always a positive thing.

>>12008846
Because it's "unfair" that trash gets money and praise what legitimate talent doesn't.
Of course, this has always been the case throughout history, but it's always a little frustrating.

If it wasn't for the awkward line breaks her poetry would indistinguishable from the marketing slogans for womens cosmetics. When the earth has become virtually uninhabitable and our masters have fled the planet the bands of survivors won't be fighting over fuel they'll be fighting over VHS tapes in the hopes of being able to "ironically" enjoy the ad breaks.

>>12011391
That's untrue. You should be careful of possessing views like that one.

I
was lost until
you
came and found
me

Wouldn't be surprised if this is an actual on of her poems

>>12006523
I hate Rupi as much as anyone here but this one from The Sun And Her Flowers is pretty good:

I love you
as the plant
that doesn’t bloom
and carries within itself,
hidden,
the light of those flowers

>>12013293
Views like that one are a legitimate art form.

>>12013352
>thinking that corny shit is any good
It's as bad as any of her other poems. Rupi Kaur is not a real poet.

so it's always other people's fault? that makes life much easier, thanks

>>12013401
>that can't be re...
>it is
What the fuck? Why would you validate people's toxicity?

>>12013401
Lol, that's what narcissists tell themselves after everyone gets sick of their shit. Of course she preaches it as the truth.

Except in this case Rupi Kaur is a particularly egregious example. Her poems aren't just bad they're horrendous and she isn't just getting praise and money she's getting her her butthole licked by publishers and public alike and getting showered in cash for it.

It makes you sad as well when you realise that the average person on the street who buys this shit has absolutely no faculties to judge poetry (or prose for that matter). It's not even that difficult to disregard stuff as shit as Kaur's "poetry", yet people eat it up.

I would argue that because of the sheer exposure that she gets it DOES matter, because a whole generation is going to be raised thinking this is good poetry.

I suppose overall it's blackpilling, but then it makes you very mad that nobody can see it for what it is.

The difference is that stars and semen don't have the same structure, fool. Colour is superficial and common. The meme points out similarities in the structure of the fabric of our world. Hurricanes and galaxies are a closer comparison to oranges and orangutans, you fuck head

I choose not to accept
the way things are

I have the courage
to not change myself

and the wisdom
to know they're both the same anyway

My girlfriend, like most women, gets a lot of her opinions from social media. She bought a copy of Milk and Honey at the bookstore and tried to read it. She never really talked about it (as she does when she likes a book) and judging by the placement of the bookmark never finished it. I’ve never teased her about it, but now I have a copy of this joke piece of literature on my bookshelf. She’s reading Infinite Jest now and only has around 100 pages to go.

following and seeing

Yeah! That's the beat right there.
I'm about to black out with 100 bars on some professional shit.
So don't try this at home yo.
Yo yo yo
My style of rhymin is ancient like Aztecs and Mayans
Because I recognize its all about timin'
Me and my freestyle alliance practicin' African voodoo science
In front of 20 ft. bonfires lookin' skyward
Calculating May 5 2000 the nine planets'll be in alignment
The arrival of the prophet in the cockpit
Of a starship the size of the Hale-Bopp comet
With mercury ion rockets
And a big ass "Canibus comin soon" poster on the side of it
I'm known geographically and intergalactically
That's why I got extraterrestrials that want to battle me
They even tried kidnappin' me
And they would've snatched me
If their craft didn't get trapped in the Earth's gravity
Engines stalled and failed. Crashed into a farmer's field
And that's really what caused Roswell
Undercover operatives workin' for COM 12
Disguised as a nigga signed with a record deal
Lyrically I'm off scale
So all hail or get tossed towards Hell, whatever y'all feel
Briusin' niggas, confusin' niggas like Chip Fu from the Fu-Schnickens
Hit you with nuclear cruiser missiles
Hear the wild wolf growl
Styles stockpiled for miles from the ground to the clouds
Wack niggas want to be down but its not allowed
Interrupt the cipher unannounced and you'll get punched in the mouth
With the southpaw southern fist
I'll bust your shit. Swell your lip and get the Bubba shrimp
Back the tougher shit. What a wimp
You giant Goliath. Niggas get shot with a rubber sling
I'm an experiment gone bad.
My brainwave's on an ????? graph. Yo, I'm stark ravin mad
Your whole scientific staff'll get killed in a nuclear blast
When I throw the ????? flask in my hand
Flammable liquids in the lab explode
And you get stabbed with all the flyin glass
Trained to blow up commercial aircrafts
Trained in chemical weapons class
Just to see how long a nigga's breath'll last
I put him in a leather mask
Spray his ass with a can of ???? gas
Then watch him grab his neck and gag
Watch the nigga choke to death as I laugh
"You want to battle?" is the type of question you should never ask
Nigga, pick a tougher task. See who the fuck'll last
Whoever lose'll get a solderin' iron up the ass
You need to recognize
My hand is quicker than the eye
Quicker than the 5 speed Jamiroquai drives
A lifespan longer than 9 lives. Infinite rhymes that can't die
A nigga with a divine mind
I dedicate this to the wise. Dedicate it to dames
Dividin' myself into 100 ten times
You can't deny the offering's an offer
Flows that glow with aurora's the spark of light
Water fly like a saucer
With the torque of a Porsche

>>12020501
Murder a million MCs then autograph all of their coffins
Been gettin' it on since I been born and I'm a live long
And I'm a be gettin' it on till I'm gone
Look at all the stages I been on. All the songs that I spit on
I took an oath to rip everything I get on
A nigga like me should have Carpal Tunnel syndromes
In the wristbones from grippin' microphones this long
I'm just a small fish in a big pond
And gets pissed off whenever I gets picked on
Nigga try to flip and get flipped on
My army march a million strong
Like the nation of Islam with suede timbs on
Extremely hostile
Fully armed troops dressed in frog suits and night vision goggles
A lyrical lynch mob
Shittin' on niggas drawn to a hideous form with horns and a mink on
Duckin' down low like Vietnam fightin' the Vietcong
Screamin' "incomin'" when I see a bomb
Speak to your leader. Surrender your arms
You need about a million more soldiers to even the odds
Plus 800, 000 to even consider a war
And 200, 000 more to even look hard
You better drop your flag and withdraw
My cavalry charge accompanied by a blizzard of wicked metaphors
And smash y'all. Attach y'all to the back of my horse
And drag y'all across the motherfuckin' asphalt
9 out of 10 niggas is frauds
You know who you are always talkin' about your bitches and your cars
Your jewelry and your girls. It's like we from two different worlds
You motherfuckers really get on my nerves
'Cause I'm beyond them, on some futuristic cyborg shit
I close my eyes when I freestyle so I could read what picture crossed in
Then raise my arms like a sorcerer and cast a fireball into the audience
To barbecue your brain organs
You feel like you've been thrown in a microwave oven
I flame broil suckers and hit 'em with some more shit
The raw shit. Call my reinforcements, the four horsemen
Take a big piece of chalk and draw a line across the stage pulpit
I dare a motherfucker to cross it
I'll even call my man Black Rob at two in the mornin
Tell him it's important. Tell him to call Sting 3 way and sing a
Break your camcorders so you motherfuckers can't record it
Call the news, I'll kill your reporters
Start a lawsuit, I'll kill your lawyers
Fuck the soft shit and fuck what y'all think
My album's gold cause my album was the bomb, shit
Y'all niggas got your ass beat cause you asked for it
Got your picture taken and put in a tabloid
'Cause you a man and you like to touch little boys
You fuck 'em in the ass, then you give 'em cash for it
That's some sick shit homeboy
A hundred years ago, they'd have took you to see Sigmund Freud
You fraudulent. Feminine. Fragile as a feather is
With an effortless blow, I'll crack your whole skeleton
You think you're better than Canibus, where's the evidence?
You got below average intelligence and poor penmanship
You need to shut the fuck up cause your breath stink
Take fifty cents and purchase a pack of peppermints
Battlin' me you never win

>>12020506

in our lovers embrace
it reaches my nostrils
quite pungent
my dear

Then look in whatever dictionary you like. They all clearly say that form is the technical, structural stuff, and that content is the subject matter.

>>12019284
Apparently basic knowledge is useless to you. That anon is right, as anyone who knows anything about poetry would tell you, but really, you should have deduced it yourself with rudimentary logic.

>>12020784
Yes and dozens of theorists have proved otherwise. Anyone who reads poetry knows that form is content.

>>12021117
You can write a sonnet about anything. A sonnet is a sonnet because is has a particular form. The content can be whatever the writer wants it to be.
There is a coherent and useful distinction between form and content.

I think we should do both. I've got nothing to contribute though.

4chan has spoken. We will stand behind Milky Honey for as long as our graphics department can implant her with the most powerfulest boobs.

When a first grader writes better poems.

i've thrown my life away
to satisfy my own ego
you desired me once
now are wed to another
i sympathize with lucifer
in paradise lost
my tears are your revenge
for a cruelly broken heart

In my little
reenacted
civil war

we wore period shirts
period pants
shot period guns
bled period blood

A black, black cloud
flew over the sun
driven by fierce flying
rain
.

Holy fuck. That tiger poem is actually better. What the fuck.

Slaaaaaaaaayy *glomps* ^.^

muh dik
made fo
white pussy...

What have I done
to drive you away? It is
winter, true enough, but

this day I love you.
This day
there is no time at all

more than in under
my ribs where anatomists
say the heart is-

A child peers out from behind the leg of his mother

He is asked to greet me

And hides his face

She apologizes

And I do the same

niggers tongue
my anus
400000000

When he left
he took all
that made the house
something of him and me

He took every piece
I could hold
to remember
everything

Except
the AIDS
circulating
through my body

>>12008763
Sometimes I find
shit
in my asscrack
Yet I have not shat
It is an enigma.

poopity poopy, scoopity scoopy
just another day, another day with rupi!
