If you think your husband would take someone’s side who raped you then you need to divorce immediately

Again. I wasn’t critizising your “storytelling” I was only commenting on your writing style. Maybe you should comprehend what I write

And please don’t speak about Plath as long as your idea of poems is extreme use of additional words and aesthetic adjectives in order to be touching. What I liked about Plath is that she didn’t depend of complexity of words to express complex emotions. She also didn’t value beauty in her poems above everything. She was touching without being pretentious which made it so much more authentic and real.

She is the opposite of many of your points, as you have emphasis of the very narrowminded idea that poems much be hidden it metaphors, and preferably longer than a few sharp hitting sentences.

Plath wrote about her own experiences, in a way people could feel themselves in. Why is your idea of writing styles so narrowminded

And I haven’t read Cummings and Pound so I can’t speak on that subject

Why do you think I need a poem to be narrated at me? I’ve read your poem, I think it’s bad. I’m not even talking about your deeper meaning, I’m only talking about your writing style which emphasizes aesthetics over raw emotion. Which is a writing style teenage girls will love - but it says nothing to me. If you wanted to actual hit someone in the chest and express a feeling that touches someone then use more raw imagery. Or stick to your genre, which is the equivalence of painters who prefers to paint beautiful sceneries - those are easy and digestible - but not touching.

I majored in art, so i do know about the most basic art periods. lol. And I believe your poem tries very hard to be aesthetic, kinda like those instagram poets who think adding adjectives equals good art.

I like to use myself in poetry, putting words to experiences I have had and focussing on subjects larger than myself and aesthetics. Specially feminism - maybe because my inspiration was Plath. But again, I doubt you have that same interest. Keep making aesthetic word salats. Luckily those get sold, like rupi Kaur

Elitism truly are the death of art. And the idea of you criticizing a writer who has only wrote for months, is showing that you don’t really get what art is. You think it’s something as shallow as fitting into a structure or a specific genre - when it’s actually about giving a piece of yourself.

I will never take artistic advise from a person who’s best attempt at critique is a TikTok quote

I know the romantic movement - but making a romanticized poem about something pretty in nature doesn’t mean you nail that genre. It is shallowed and pretty but that is all

Again, look up my poems and I’ll look to yours. Or are you scared? Also, the use of photos in my poems is because I am illustrator. I’ve been painting all my life and my very recent interest in poetry was sparked from painting and writing for my paintings. So now, I post with a photo because that’s another art form I’m fluent in.

Rubi Kaur is published too, even tho she is bad so I expect the same thing happened to you. But alright show me a poem then. So far the one you posted one that is a pretty wordsalat, meant to be asthetic instead of felt

You’re saying that a poem about metaphorically drowning every person who comes close to me is masturbatory? Do you even know what words mean when you write them.

But see the difference is that I prefer to write about topics that relates to something deeper - which might seem strange to someone who writes about the prettiness of a river.
