She's got some lovely toes

Can't even tell if it's fake or legit.

This is better than anything Rupi has done.

At least it gave
way for numerous parodies
since the style is
so distinct and yet so easy
to mock.

It's a great format for unexpected
punchlines cartago delenda est

>>14411353
"Pic related" gives it away

The decade is not even over, retards.

It's such an odd style that doesn't even rhyme.

People are
Reading culture
Of critique
Critiquing culture
Of critique
Culturing yogurt
Of Greek

I’d give her my sticky rice if you can read between the lines of what I am typing

>>14411155
i get her mixed up with M.I.A. and am always disappointed when i see her picture

One of these days, rupi. ONE OF THESE DAYS!

I don't read books written by authors born after 1930.

>Rupi Kaur is the writer of the Decade
says who?

>>14412682
So no DFW?

I read some of the highly touted modern female writers this year just to see what I was missing. Every single one was a waste of my time. I just finished The Memory Police and it was even worse than I expected.

I'm never going to read a female author again.

>>14412755
Thank God(pbuh) no.

>writer of the decade

Christ actually checked the link this guy is such a simpering blowhard. How do self-respecting people write this crap.

She's really popular...ok...but wait..."This is a different matter from a shared pop culture touchstone, such as Top 40 songs or sitcoms. The mantle of poet accords Kaur a kind of legitimacy, as it always has; you could write about her work for your college application essay." Sad to think that someone like this article writer exists but I guess it's better than being a cartel member hacking heads off.

no

Of all the things to name, you chose the one thing objectively better than writing that kind of shit.

We want Rupi feet!

My goodness gracious, it's Ms. Rupi Kaur!
Whose footgame began an Indo Smut War
Igniting from Bhuj to Hoshiarpur
Riled crowds’ lusts for Rupi proper
Her pedal bloom floored millions so jealous
Archlets, stub-toed wives thrown from high trellis
Ministers pledged crisis chiropody
Besieged by footlusting scurillity
Kashmir first then Gujarat’s Feet Riots
Ascetes pledged pedis with karmic diets
No alms could sate Rupi’s lurid haunting
Toes of vert, bice, teal and rose, so flaunting
Dreams of Rupi’s ruddy duned soles, so fair
Askew expectations and blighted prayers
Vexing cities, hills, trenchant fetish thirsts
Vortical infatuations soon bursts
Statewide calamities roust refugees
Mumbai podophiles spend like bougies
None rival but one Rupi toe cranny
Not Humaima Malick, Pakistani
Nor Asin or Priya’s feet, still thrilling
Sans Rupi’s nuance they’re unfulfilling
UN relief atop Delhi’s blather
Stayed not the surging footlusts’ viscous slather
Oracles, savants dumbstruck by her feets
Women spurned, soles lacking velveteen pleats
Wrecked ruins plume smoke while fapper fists froth
Beware all counterfeit Rupi foot broth
Dissolved cities, fetishists hermetic
From one poetess’s hot aesthetic
Girls unshod, their men then struck by bathos
Rupi’s shoe slave quips, “Finna pay f’ those”
Outside India, this crux ludicrous
Cannuck Rupi bathes in Juniperus
Sudsing her soles, how bubbles slowly slide
Pumice and files, deftly her hand glides
Trimming the hairs along toes’ regal length
Wiggling and flexing, bewitching her strength
Strappy heels compress, her toes seem Grecian
But barefoot she slinks wavy, Phoenician
Thinking the riots as all a bit weird
Detoxifying her soles, charcoal smeared
On idols and shrines, foot pilgrims do weep
Recording laments after iphone’s bleep

8/10. babe.net wasn't able to nail Rupi's general diffuseness and their examples were more concrete and less 'poetical' if you know what I mean.

>progressive brown woman wins media award

I'm sure it was totally merit based and not at all because she has the politics and demography (((they))) are pushing.

>The young Canadian poet understands better than most of her contemporaries how future generations will read.

>The young Canadian poet understands better than most of her contemporaries how future generations SHOULD read.

Just the media apparatus at work like normal. Reading and promoting pure garbage.

>how future generations will read

You mean only short sentences with monsyllabic words and simple doodles everywhere, only touching on ideas as complex as a twitter feed? Honestly sounds exactly right.

>>14411155
I guess it HAS been a pretty forgettable decade

>>14413300
There must have been at least one guy who wrote about top 40 pop songs
