welcome to the modern world
this is a poem.
Hi! It's Divya

What does the g stand for?
It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of an enter key is
a poet
hi
I'm a side channel
that is also a main channel
I like to mix
aesthetics with social commentary on things that are important to me in life
and to the world...
like memes.
HAH unsubscribe HAH
some people call it modern poetry some
people call it art some people call it tumblr-insta poetry and some people call
it
my caps lock is broken and no longer works
but one thing is for certain you
can't complete your insta look without a copy of milk and honey, your kanken bag
in the background, and you sweet potato avocado toast with chia seeds on top
what??? (that's not me hahahahaha)
the princess saves herself in this one.... wonder what it's about? By Amanda
Lovelace. Did you know that Amanda Lovelace was in college when she
published this? College. Girl was doing bits. Lovelace uses the [pretentious voice] extended metaphor
in this one of your classic fairy tale story of the princess locked up in a
tower throughout sections of the books and how it kind of aligns with this
parts and aspects of her own life. In terms of themes and topics for this one
we have: grief, motherhood, familial relationships, sisterhood, there's a lot death,
love and what it means to be a woman. Lovelace likes to manipulate the
form of her poetry both to render the aesthetics but also just to kind of
capture the visual form and meaning of her poetry if that makes sense some
people call it overuse of the Enter key :) in my opinion my back side- my behind- my
tush is firmly planted on de fence. I don't know why I'm sitting on a fence
but I'm sitting on it and my butt- my butt's not moving. My favourite poems in
this anthology centers mostly around grief and also this tumultuous
mother/daughter relationship that she has. Grief clung to her like an old, itchy,
faded, ill-fitting, hand-me-down dress. Death wound itself around her bones like
a piece of red ribbon. Months after my mom died I found the book she was
reading last, with the yellowing receipt still tucked inside marking her place
and it finally hit me. You'll never get to finish this particular book you will
never get to start or finish another book ever again. You'll never get to see
me graduate from college, you will never meet the love of my life, you will never
be there for my wedding, you will never read these words, we will never ever
ever sit on the back porch and swap go stories over steaming coffee mugs ever
ever ever again.
The isolated words and, as my past English teacher would, say
[pretentious accent] EN-JAAAM-B-MON (enjambment) [laughs]
reads like a mental pause like, with each line compounding upon the
previous, the lack of spaces feels uncomfortable and tight especially
compared to the poem literally opposite of it. Like the words themselves winding
around, like taking space of the page - mimicking how death itself encompasses
the speaker's entire body or life. Lovelace's bitter regret is evident in this poem
like if you combine like the anaphora with declarative "you will never get to"
you with a verb, I feel like it really puts across this of finality of life
The tone in this section is somber and regretful towards this
childhood so consumed with death that the author never really got a chance to
live. There's this poem in particular right and-this-like- "fill-in-the-blank: poetry
is, space, anything you want it to be" and it makes you question:
[pretentious old man voice] what... is... poetry?
Another problem that a lot of people have with milk and honey and the
princess saves herself in this one is that it's written in free verse in such
simple language that it almost doesn't even
feel like poetry it kind of just feels like statements like some of these
statements could be tweets! [broken spanish] Par ejemple (por ejemplo), [coughs] [clears sinuses]
food is not the enemy
society is
everyone I love
leaves :' (
If that wasn't your facebook status in 2010 when David Tennant regenerated into Matt
Smith don't even @ me though. And with the love poems if you can't relate ( like me )
then it comes across as a little bit cringy. Cuz you know.... I can't relate
it's a lot darker than the princess saves herself in this one. Kaur explores
cultural identity especially in relation to our family, sexual abuse, she
explores rape, she explores kind of what it means to be a woman in the modern
century and how to define womanhood. At the same time.... simultaneously Kaur uses a
lot more imagery in her writing but it also suffers from
Obvious Statement Syndrome [fake laugh]
Stay, I whispered as you shut the door
behind you
no I whispered as
TFL took £5.60 from my oyster card balance [deep sniff]
the way they
leave tells you everything
I was Dolce and Gabanna but you were on
a budget
- Divya g
the point is the statements can be quite simple. In one way it's
accessible and you don't have to do too much thinking to find the meaning it's
quite obvious, it's quite blunt but on the other hand
the feminism- people praised
this book for feminism in my opinion like the things she was saying
weren't very revolutionary they were kind of just obvious facts that a lot of
people in our generation agree with I'm not saying poetry you know has to be
revolutionary, right? Cause a lot of people do connect with it. I'm just saying that
these books were like a Celebration box yeah and I was getting a lot of Bounty
but I just wanted the Maltesers. Some people complain about the ommittance of caps locks
and letters in her writing. I feel like that's not really an issue because if anything, it's really
more of an ode to Gurmukhi scripture and if anything the lack of capital letters
makes the words flow a lot more easier. If anything, it makes her message
seem more vulnerable and just like more- it's just-...... JUST MORE RAW, MELISSA.
My favorite poem is Woman of Color so "our backs tell stories no books have the
spine to carry" and it's really the comparison between the daily burdens and
struggles that we have to face are so great that words are inadequate in
capturing this essence. They're [the poems] evidently personal right and they deal with a lot of
heavy topics but the problem for me is sometimes both form and content
are missing. Forget Madeleine [McCann] what- what am i reading? In the words of my actual
brother: if I got any of these poems in my GCSE unseen poetry exam I'd be
screwed because there is nothing to say
(That was peak)
(So harsh. Wow)
(Roasting is in our blood)
whether you like this form of confessionalist free-verse or not I do admire the
fact that they're kind of challenging the gatekeepers of poetry sometimes
poetry can be so intimidating for people because there's this air of haughtiness
it's intimidating right and at least these authors creating poetry that's
accessible for more people. It's kind of like poetry for people who don't like
poems and that is and h20 hydration (because there's no tea) okay so these are the two mainstream
ones let's talk about some other underrated quote unquote tumblr
insta poetry- right, yeah we got these - um Graffiti by Savannah Brown I'll tell you
straight up that I am biased. I have no shame. I love Savannah Brown. Savannah
Brown, as a poet, as a writer, she's so lyrical with the way that she
writes okay like her poetry is so enriched with with images and metaphors
some people might think away this is just John Green pretentious angsty teen
well if it's John Green pretentious angsty teen then so be it! I dig it! We have a skinny
legend. These poems are written at the very cusp of adulthood in this weird
black hole between being a child and being not. I feel like these poems are very
personal, in the sense that Savannah wrote this for herself. She didn't write
this for other people to read, right? When I read these poems I get this feeling
that we're kind of looking into her trapped inside her own headspace and
battling this sense of existentialism. Graffiti I feel
like Savannah is like [mwAH] the cream of the crop
molto bene
in terms of spoken poetry, right? If you feel a weird sense of disconnect when
you're reading the poem, just honestly, just go to youtube look at her poetry
playlist and just listen to her speak. I feel like when she speaks it just adds a
whole another dimension okay? I'm just transported into another era.
I don't even know who I am anymore
I wasn't a fan of all of the poetry but my favourite one
was "moles don't think about space or small talk" as the poem progresses Brown
mimics the kind of overthinking process on page through both form and content
right I like it cause I related to it. You know? Moles are peaceful creatures that
live a simple existence, right? They're hidden underground and sometimes we also
want to hide within ourselves and from external society and hide from ourselves
even like, they don't have this narcissistic need to be significant in
life or have the pressure to matter or be someone, even when they live on this
vast earth.
Unless they're the Underminder.
Ladies and gentlemen welcome to our last book
Bottleneck Dreams by Nhi The Poet and it is the one and only
book that has CAPITAL LETTERS
What a rare sight indeed.
[Oh my god vine audio & Noah Centineo saying whoa whoa whoa]
The poetry in this has a very whimsical youthful wanderlust stargazing type of
essence to it. The primary focus for this collection of poems is memories and
feelings attached with you know love of our youth. Still cannot relate. Okay, hear me
out. This sounds kind of weird but these are the type of books that you read
if you like Colors by Halsey.
Ok so, for me,
Cheers resonated with me because it speaks about teenagers' methods of
escapism. Right. Whether it's drugs or alcohol or other means
we crave short-term euphoria and we glorify lives of like reckless
adolescence. You know life is short and these thrills that we're seeking they're
kind of empty and they're kind of meaningless. Like, I like it because it
balances, while there's a certain beauty to these experiences like they don't last forever.
Your snapchat story's gonna dissipate in 24 hours boo.
I would like to know your
opinions on modern poetry like do you read it and do you think talk is
overrated? I had such a good upload schedule right
for like a month and I have three really big projects for YouTube oh and they're
not they're not that big projects it's just you just it'll take me a long ass time to
edit but I honestly I'd rather spend longer making a nice video for you guys
then just uploading trash each week Long story short, I'll try and upload
on a Sunday ... or a Friday or a Saturday every week but I can't promise because I
have uni commitments.
So my upload schedule is going to be sporadic but we all knew this.. sis we
been knew okay
So [Viktor: AMAZING] SUBSCRIBE!
Bye!
I'm going to sleep now.

WHAT!?
the entire summer I've been sat on my computer right and I feel like I'm just
