    So, given that you are accomplished, is it safe to assume you are widely published in respected literary journals? You have a book (or several) published with traditional publishers that is readily available in bookstores internationally? Could you share some credits because I'd like to read your work and decide for myself how accomplished you are, just as you judged Kaur.

    ​​​@@blabbinglobster I mean she bought Kaur's book as a customer and judged the product, which is a thing anybody could do. Stop with the "She got published, so she's better" type of argument, in an hyperconsumistic economical system in which overconsumption is synonymous with simple, pastiche, immediateness, is a prorogative for selling high numbers to be the most hacky work possible, and it's not about me being edgy, it's a consequence of the market. There's no direct link that unites the market and the cultural subject, poetry and prose come out from social media, not academia or cultural movements, the language of reference is the one of social media and the market, not of art. Rupi Kaur is, and will always be, worse than anything who has a method writes. I don't even mean it as gatekeeping, you can buy and consume the product or whatever, I just don't accept the "accomplishment" argument anymore. I can understand local accomplishment, being accomplished in a certain niche, but to become the absolute standard it means you totally adapted to the market's demand and so you're most totally of the most marketable quality, which is, by late capitalist definition, some of the worst quality, again simple, immediate and yada yada yada

    I have a very similar take. A lot of her stuff is just too short and cheesy, but there are some nice pieces throughout. I'm surprised she got as published and made as many sales as she did. She definitely took advantage of the "tumblr days" to create her name. Of course, in modern times, she's not as relatable as she may have been to 14-year-olds just exploring life back then.

    The one Rupi Kaur poem I like is called “fingers” “the most important conversations you’ll have are with your fingers when they nervously graze hers for the first time during dinner the thrill of raising goosebumps on her breasts while unbuttoning her shirt on days you are angry, they’ll ball into fists and she’ll cry, but as they shake for forgiveness she’ll see what apologies look like and when one of you is dying in a hospital bed at 65, your hands’ll grip hers to say things words can’t describe”

    Thank you for exposing the Rupi Kaur cult. I was wondering why Indian woke leftists are blindly marketing her stuff, I was pretty interested to read this book someday because I love poetry too. One reason why I think her poetry is in such style in because she thinks her target audience Indians are illiterate foolish to accept anything garbage as poetry especially if it comes from Non resident Indians (NRIs) staying in abroad. May be she is targetting Punjabi audience in India may be the English education is below standard levels there but I'm sure Punjab audience is not dumb as her writings. These people push sexuality in everything, I'm okay if they want to discuss sexuality but they should also discuss the trauma associated with it and workable solutions for it. I remember during my school days my English teacher used to describe poetry lessons in classroom and language classes were the most memorable part of my childhood. I am somebody who grew listening to Shakespeare, Dickens, Robert Frost kind of writers from schools. I never lately touched poetry but last time I delved into poetry was during my guru Sadhguru narrating his poetry works in a video titled " Eternal Echos " since then my interest in poetry kind of taken a rebirth .I would suggest you to watch the video Eternal Echos with Sadhguru on KZread..I'm sure you will love it ... Besides this I read some poetries in my native language Kannada by eminent writers of Kannada. Thank you ❤️

She popularized this way of writing then literary heads came for her with torch and pitchfork. Further, just bc it's short form doesn't make it any less valuable or complex. Writing a novel vs writing poetry both take a lot of energy to do. You gotta give it to her tho, she had the perfect setup for the times we're living in where people's attention spans are that of a fly.

    My position regarding Rupi Kaur's poetry is similar to Martin Scorsese's regarding Marvel movies. There is absolutely nothing wrong with liking her work, that you feel identified with her phrases, that you are moved by her life story. All of that is great. But what she writes is not poetry. Literature is an art that deserves respect, we must respect great writers and value true talent and effort. That does not mean that Rupi has no talent or that she has no merit. Personally, I give her full and complete credit as an influencer, public figure, opinion leader, internet personality and also as a visionary, businesswoman and activist (although I don't really buy her ideas that much)... but I can't give her credit as a poet because that would be disrespectful to poets, her lines are incomplete thoughts and little more than that. I would add that I think it is very audacious of her (in a good sense) to have taken her writings to the field of performance because, once again, she is a visionary woman and has known how to capitalize on the attention she has received, she has known how to jump on the bandwagon of fame and has been very astute (or maybe just intuitive and instinctive) in aligning herself with mainstream themes. Honestly, I'm glad for her success but I'm not happy at all for the decline in quality that all artistic disciplines are experiencing. I hope my appreciation of this author helps some people to broaden their horizons. Blessings to Rupi, by the way.

    31:14 “cut off” could have two different meanings… like literally cut with a knife or scissors like Vincent Van Gogh (which actually makes me think lots of other things about this poem) but it can also be used to mean “turned off.” So in the south a lot of people say “cut off the lights” or “cut off the radio.” Instead of turn off… you can also think of cutting something off like “she was getting money from her parents but they cut her off.” So in this case it’s that they stopped providing, they cut off their support. You can cut someone off in traffic or cut them off when they are talking. I feel like the use of the phrase “cut off” can just evoke so many things.

    The name Kaur: Rhymes with more & starts with K as in maKe. 00:50 At 20:22, The hair bit. Rupi, who claims to be Sikh, seems to be validating a conviction -- religious or not, her own and/or others' -- to let hair be. Background: Hair on any part of the body stop growing at a naturally-finite length. Sikh faith considers the hair sacred, so one tenet is to let the hair be & kept tidy & covered Orthodox Sikhs (the "Khalsa") must not cut, trim, or shave hair. They also need to wear a turban -- a long cotton cloth wrapped freshly each time -- that helps with comfort, mood, head & hair safety, and hair management. [And safety, for the head....turban often works to save from concussions etc.!]. Countless others practice the two roles as well, though women less so in the turban role. When it comes to many Sikh females: without turban that bonds more conviction to the spiritual and/or religious path, many of the youth & women turn to hair & body fashions & modifications -- with particulars that may go against tenets and/or a necessary humiiliy in living. In 2007 & 2010, I wrote about hair vis-a-vis appeal to nature and other factors, in greater depth, with more pith and feeling. Who wants to read it?

From the sacred hymns of Guru Nanak, To the valor of Guru Gobind Singh, Each word, each stride, a testament, To the strength that Sikhism brings. Turbaned crowns gleam with dignity, In every stride, a legacy untold, Through trials and triumphs, they rise, With the divine wisdom they hold. In the langar, where all souls unite, Rich or poor, none stands apart, For in the eyes of Waheguru, Every being is a cherished part. With every breath, with every step, Sikhism's essence forever flows, In the hymns of love and equality, In the spirit of chardi kala that grows. So let us walk this path together, In the light of Guru's grace we find, For in the embrace of Sikhism, Eternal peace and love entwined.

    I’m confused. It appealed to you when you were young and it got you into poetry… Now you’re older and you have different tastes… This doesn’t seem like a scam. It seems like she wrote something that spoke to you at a different time in your life. Why would poetry that appeals to a young teen girl not be valid because you apparently grew beyond it, or your tastes change. Also I feel like the “this isn’t a poem it’s a tumbler post” somehow makes it less… idk.

    That poem at around 20:30 is just an appeal to nature fallacy assuming that because something is natural, it is therefore meant to be, or good. The far more interesting exploration would be exploring the social construct of WHY people choose to remove it or even maybe having a poem about why it would be that way if you wanted a religious angle on it to raise a question. This is just fallascious thinking as a poem.

    Imho poetry is like a novel.... It's an art that requires skill, not just the emotions and expressiveness required for the voice. Storytelling, regardless of how you do it, requires technique. Even free verse poetry has technique and rhythm embedded into it. Writing sentences and breaking them into something compact isn't a poem, because it's simply just a thought made to look aesthetically pleasing, then shared on the internet. I'm a lover of the Romantics. Not every poem they wrote has the same form, meter, or rhyme. Some of them are short and simple, Keats is an example of the beauty in the simple things. But the reason they're poets, and Instagram Poets aren't, is he had the skill to manipulate words. He didn't just jot them down and spliced it up to look pretty.

Unfortunately you have no exposure to diversity and you fail to connect to her.

    Majority of people who like poets, don't like Rupi's work. Some of us were introduced to poetry via things like Dead Poets Society, which sent us on a trail of poems from the Romantics to the Realists, WWII and even some modern. The "organic and simple" can be done with skill; Keats is the best example I have of someone who did exactly that. The problem is, putting a #deepthought with a few line breaks and a pretty background, does not a poem make.
