Usually when women like this are no longe pretty, and their 15 minutes in the spotlight for talking about their pussy is over, they marry some white guy and return to being nobody. But Rupi Kaur seems like an actual pathological narcissist based on that one half-interview, half-hit piece from way back.

I wonder if she lacks the basic female instinctive realism to know that you've got to lock down a dick with money once your looks start to fade. She might actually think she's a poet. Most women think they're whatever their social media presence says they are at the surface, but deep down they know they're just the most popular slut on the block for a week. If Rupi actually thinks she's a respected cultural figure, we may be seeing her tweet poems about her vagina until she's 40.

Reminds me of the oil spill lady from a bobs burgers episode. It’s not subtle at all. But this sense of a need for subtlety does not stem, at least in my case, from a sense of shame or fear of the poems sexual nature. I don’t think sex needs to be disguised in order for its presentation to be palatable. It more comes from a sense that there isn’t anything interesting being said. If you are going to say something uninteresting at least say it in an interesting way.

When you realize that social media is itself an artistic medium, it becomes obvious that Rupi is extremely based and also the most avant-garde poet of her generation.

What we have:
- no actual poetic form
