Jesus Christ, this one is just stupid.
Oh Rupi, you are so clever, I bet you are realy proud of yourself.
Gay and retarded. Original sin BS btfo
I like that Rupi is so full of herself that she needs to tell the world she is full of herself. Truly, this is the generation that will end humanity.
I would roast this one... But this one is okay. Gay. But okay.
What does she mean by this? Is Rupi talking about pro-life people or about Muhammed? Probably the first because I bet she ignores brown people's mistakes because they are brown.
She is a master in the art of saying a lot but nothing at the same time. Fucking awfull Rupi, just awfull this one.
This one is okay. I kinda like it even.
I bet this one is real.
I actualy like this one. Could be better writen, but the I like the message. Finaly Rupi talking some sense.
Fuck. You fucked up at the ending. Loneliness is a sign you need of yourself? Realy Rupi? Fuck you, you fucked up at the ending.
Fuck off Rupi.
11/10, literary master piece.

The worst is that Milk&Honey do have some cool messages, if they weren't so awfully written. In the end, I can only say: Rupi... Stop.

the messages are incredibly boring
>ladies are good
>bf cheated on me :-(
>feminism!
she hasn't said anything new in any of the four-line simplistic bullshit "poems" she's written. so many people deal with one or all of these themes while actually contributing something substantial

Riffing on her feels like fishing with dynamite, I love it.

I personaly like it, tho yeah, when she starts with "muh bf" gets boring. Probably because they are awfully written more than usual.
It's the only way she will grow up from her chieldish ways and awfull writting.

At first I thought this was made by the little girl who made the Tiger poem

feet

Lavos plz go

The Tiger poem is a literary master piece in comparisson to Rupi self-masturbation with her Twitter poem's.
The first is a kid being exploring her limited world view (not in the negative sense) and working her way with to write at least a cute short poem.
The second is a supposed grown up woman with a awfull writting and a self-pandering pseudo-intelectual garbage. Rupi can do much better, but the shit she is publishing and the people that are consuming aren't helping her to develop her style by praising the majorly garbage in the books (she does sometimes write okay stuff)

Attached: our backs i guess.jpg (640x640, 42K)

Agreed

It's not really in her self interest to grow up. It'd be like lighting a stack of money on fire, Nolan style.

Let's just agree that all religion is terrible and call it a day

Some religions are more terrible than others.

god i hate
modern "poems"
theyre not really poetic they
just say shit normally
but
space it out on arbitrarily selected
lines
so it looks profound and deep

You're right, now that I think about it's mostly the abrahamic ones that are shit. Also hinduism seems pretty fucked too. All aboard the buddhism train I guess.

You misunderstand me.

White religions = fine.
Other religions = shit.

Look into your heart. You know it to be true.

Ahh fuck, I can't believe they've done this

Grim shit.

kek

Her self interest is less important than mine. I wish to see her full potencial, not her twitter posts in book format.
Fuck...
Religions itself are meaninless, is the followers actions that will define said religion value. Also, didn't you knew about buddhist terrorism? It's on the rise in one part of Asia, just like Hinduism is getting more radical in India thx to chauvinistic narratives.

I propose a new term--Lilalo: anything that carries the essential sentiment of Live, Laugh, Love.

Never before have I read any of these poems. Knowing they are some of the best selling contemporary poems, I weep. I am devastated. What hope can exist for the English language when it's range of expression has somehow been condensed to the space between Rupi Kuar and Kendrick Lamar?

Fair enough. I can't even imagine what an evolved version of her output would look like. Maybe it'd even blow me away.

Fun fact: Rupi plagiarized an equally talentless hack named Nayyirah Waheed. This is one of Nayyirah.

Ruby Coen for new instapoet queen.

Guys I came up with an idea.
Lets create faux rupi kaur "poems" with obnoxious and off-putting content and dissipiate them in the web.
Like why not. They seem to be easy to imitate.

Attached: potry.png (640x640, 20K)

Actually, I take it back, Rupi Kaur is slightly more talentless than Nayyirah.

Attached: such deep.jpg (640x660, 108K)

Holy shiet, thats why I don't venture into poetry: I cant write shit.
I support this idea.

I wonder what would happen if the two of them touched.

I’m mildly retarded: Ruby Coen’s a parody right? Or does Rupi’s intern hate her

That’s fucking great

I don't know who this Rupi chap is, but the quotes of him posted here seems to range from shit to fucking shit in quality.

wtf, that sounds rapey

Reminder that Rupi is short for Rupert.

That's a parody. So are the ones in black.

i dont know about her poetry but i' fuck the shit out of her, god damn she makes my dick hard hnnnnng

The problem I get is she's not flexing. The collection reads like the notes app of someone who has the potential to be talented--If she were to put some work in to string together something with depth and cohesion.

These aren't poems. These are at their best fragments which, if strung together, have the potential to become poetry. At their worst, they're platitudes and limping husks of assertions.

>soaring high as can be
>yet still eating worms

>someone who has the potential to be talented

Again with the knee-jerk meme-ing. How about you develop your own sense of critical thinking?

It cannot be denied that the pun on "spine" is the beginning of a potential extended metaphor. There is a seed of cleverness here, albeit a minimal clearly half-assed amount.

I don't know, maybe I'm just feeling contrarian tonight.

>have the potential to become poetry

Great article. Actually takes a lot of the criticism of Kaur commonly seen on this board and makes it more... eloquent.

this one has to be fake, right? It's a rip off of a john green quote ffs

>tfw half this thread probably considers William Carlos Williams good

I like reading her poems because it makes me feel like the garbage I write when I'm feeling emo is good enough to be sold in a book, but I know it would never sell because I have a dick.

it's the current year, just put a skirt on

and post a pic in your pajamas with shit in them on instagram

She lacks potential because she lacks any insight. Her poetry is devoid of any real meaning, it's just telling women they don't need to change and everyone else is wrong. No analysis into the individual whatsoever.

I don't like skirts and I don't own pajamas, but I could definitely shit in my clothes if it would make me famous.

but this is just people who don't deserve love wasting their souls on false ties repeatedly until they're desensitized and lose their capacity for entanglement with the Other. there's nothing noble about it, the human heart does break, when it does the person usually dies within a few decades, loses their mind or becomes a husk

Fucking kek
The fact that this is better written than Rupi raises concern.

I like this picture though

i'm not saying she's any good, because she isn't, but you lot dislike her for the wrong reasons

will one of you post one of your own poems for reference

tf are the right reasons?

OF Mans First Disobedience, and the Fruit
Of that Forbidden Tree, whose mortal tast
Brought Death into the World, and all our woe,
With loss of Eden, till one greater Man
Restore us, and regain the blissful Seat,
Sing Heav'nly Muse, that on the secret top
Of Oreb, or of Sinai, didst inspire
That Shepherd, who first taught the chosen Seed,
In the Beginning how the Heav'ns and Earth
Rose out of Chaos: Or if Sion Hill
Delight thee more, and Siloa's Brook that flow'd
Fast by the Oracle of God; I thence
Invoke thy aid to my adventrous Song,
That with no middle flight intends to soar
Above th' Aonian Mount, while it pursues
Things unattempted yet in Prose or Rhime.

not that moribund academic concoction

you mean the conscience, mental perception.
if the heart shattered you'd die almost immediately.

this is simply a telling of how feeble their mind is.

Kendrick is a lot better than this shit

She smells like curry poo. Not to mention her man hands

Oh yeah. Reminded me to add her to my 4chanx filters. Thanks for that OP.
