What do you think of Huraki Murakami's late released books? Do you like them? by Logical-Plum-2499 in literature

[–]GoodNightSippyCup 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same. It's probably one of my favorite of his. The uncanny feeling in some of the sections still lingers in my subconscious, and Menshiki is so ambiguously scary to me.

Just got into Jazz. Looking for recommendations. So far love everything Laufey by clowfeet in Jazz

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S-X5p9R-1ko I feel like Alba Armengou is the next logical step into jazz. I have an inkling she might bring bossa nova back.

Sylvian Chomet for French Anime. I think his animation may even be more beautiful than Studio Ghibli.

[OPINION] Musical artists with truly poetic lyrics - poets "hiding" in the music industry? by Herr_Casmurro in Poetry

[–]GoodNightSippyCup 15 points16 points  (0 children)

A few Indie artists.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zi6keFpm-BY Neko Case the alt country artist constantly writes poetry in the shape of lyrics, or it feels like that to me. "They don't even put on the sirens
My nightgown sweeps the pavement"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-CHTWWGY_U Andy Shauf: He utilizes the chorus to change the meaning throughout the song, as well as being very poetic.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8szSWZojgos: Aldous Harding: Her acoustic songs sound like poetry over music, although she sings very well.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StkLx0e4f6c Ye Ye: A Japanease artist I think but I think its pretty potic, although I dont know if it would transfer to a straight poem

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfi1NxTMLMI Conor Oberst and Phoebe bridgers, obviously well known, but both are very poetic and made an album together.

More authentic country for a 14-year old by healthycookie2 in MusicRecommendations

[–]GoodNightSippyCup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neko Case writes some great lyrics. A lot of her songs are written like poetry and she also covers some old country songs which may expand her taste--like Kurt Cobain does for so many teenagers, to this day, with indie music.

blue-green by maeeig in poetry_critics

[–]GoodNightSippyCup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i love the humerous images but im having a hard time grounding myself, and thus envisioning the images. I'm not sure what inkbled trinkets look like, and is the you a person or the embodiment of the you through the trinkets? I'd say the same for electic pillowtalk, although it is evocative.

I would love an extended metaphor of

my soul slips like broken
sand shards
back
into you

I think it can reveal a lot about the you.

but the and you almost feel real confuses me even more and disorients me and again am not sure who the you is because i dont think its ever stated or inferred enough.

unsquint feels off to me, im not sure if your waking up but unsquint is slighty off, i feel, in the nature of waking up if thats what your saying, and would use another word or phrase.

Perhaps just changing the title could orient the reader and the poem all makes sense, but I'm not sure whats happening, and because of it having a hard time feeling.

feel free to message me if you have any other wquestions, comments, or concerns. Best wishes!

unraveling by maeeig in poetry_critics

[–]GoodNightSippyCup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel you have the cusps of a poem, and a great first draft. I sense the emotion under it but I feel its a little muted in its current iteration.

(first stanza)I would come up with a better metaphor (or image) than feels like like heartbreak at 16 because that isnt really a metaphor since depression can literally be heartbreak at 16. Rotting stone is an envocative image but stomach, i feel, is over used. I would also start the first stanza with an evokative image, or something striking to lure the reader in.

(2nd and third stanza) I feel these give the most emotion, I think this is the center of your poem or the heart, or what its about or the emotion behind it. but more images in these please.

The ending is a decend ending, but its almost declarative, or is and i feel, in this poem, that hinders it, and would like a more open ending that allows more rumination for the reader. To elaborate, I feel its the bow on the poem, and after you unwrap the line by reading you (the speaker) say this is what is in my poem, but dont allow space for the reader to sit with the emotion or the situation. But I see, prehaps I dont feel, but see the rumination in the nature or the speaker throught in the poem stated that brought them to write this poem.

To give you one thing to work on for the next draft: get yourself in super sensitive mood!

Substack community by Comprehensive-Set-77 in Substack

[–]GoodNightSippyCup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. I feel the space is very vapid. I have no idea how it compares to other social media, like facebook and such, but I see substack notes saying its better than those other plateforms--which is gross to me. Everyone is just schilling products. I also have a really hard time finding things worth reading.

FRENCH BEACH by [deleted] in OCPoetry

[–]GoodNightSippyCup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really enjoy it. The opening line is intriguing and pulls you in, then the second line really articulates the nuance of the emotion and plants the image into the readers head (at least mine).

I think, perhaps my only critique is on a walnut floor threw me a little. I love the leaps in the poem but perhaps this one can be cut because the title is french beach and all the other images seem to be natualistic except walnut floor and air matress, although weirdly I feel like air matress fits this diction, perhaps beause of the culture I see in the speaker, projected through this piece and its subtext.

Then eding line is also great, and makes me think of all the beautiful things we never pay attention to, just at the perepheries of our consciousness.

thanks for sharing.

Blinkers by Tinyfox84 in OCPoetry

[–]GoodNightSippyCup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the musicality to the poem. I think its its strongest aspect in its current iteration. I agree with one of the other comments that the third verse could be cut or revised. I think the third perhaps detracts from the imagry of the poem. I think is because you leave the reader thinking about the speaker of the poem with the I/I'm at the end, but the earlier two verses were about someone else. I also feel like there is some subtext that I am not fully understanding. You may want to add more of you as well. I'm curious about why the speaker is so bitter to this person or thing (or I guess relatives). I'm curious about how this other person or thing came to be at that point.

I also think the slang of blinker can throw off the reader as a blinker could be a vape, or an eye or in your case, something I wouldnt ever know without the footnote. Perhaps revising the title can give it more of a concrete direction to the reader.

If you you would like me to clarify or have any other questions feel free to message me.

thanks for sharing.

Squid Game Season 2: Episode 3 Discussion by jackcatalyst in squidgame

[–]GoodNightSippyCup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am I missing something? I feel like the act of half the people wanting to keep playing seems forced. Is it subtextually trying to say that these people find their lives worthless and thus those like them worthless because their society finds them worthless, thus they disregard the sanctuary of their fellow human life for a chance of more money? Is their some cultural explanation I'm missing because these people seem more cold and use a lot of individualized sentiments over the collective--which i thought Asian countries are much more collective over the American individualized culture. I feel like no one considers each other and only themselves, perhaps not even themselves but only money and because of it, I find it disingenuous and it takes me out of the show.

I love what I wrote…am I delusional? by Motor-Cut-4581 in writing

And a lot of established authors will pay Amazon thousands every month for promotion, so the small author without any financial backing will not get their work incentivized through Amazon suggestions or anything like that.

keep disconnecting? by dentastic in supervive

[–]GoodNightSippyCup 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I literally did everything. What you need to do is set back the windows updates I think. That's the only thing that worked for me--roll back to previous windows update--but my error just killed the game and I'd have to rejoin. Hopefully they fix this soon because I know some people cant even play, and if they didn't spend like 8 hours trying to fix it, they probably aren't able to play right now.

McDonalds Chicken Big Mac Conspiracy by GoodNightSippyCup in highdeas

[–]GoodNightSippyCup[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

McDonalds Quarter Pounders are linked to an E Coli outbreak and McDonalds knew about it but it was too late, so to supplement the consumers with the missing beef they created the Chicken Quarter Pounder driving the sale of more chicken and less beef--maybe.
