Perhaps because the Arts are under attack by Adolf Trumpf!

She's gonna come back and release the poetry collection of the century. Just you wait.

These 4chuds are not ready for Black Excellence.
>>
>>24970010
It's almost like she was never good just black
>>
>>24971727
Why does Black Excellence look so much like White Mediocrity at 9 years old?
>>
>>24971716
she has been eclipsed by rupi kaur
>>
>>24970010
Her poetry is pure dogshit. Literally emperor's new clothes tier gaslighting.

>mediocre white kid of 9 has the skill to become national youth poet laureate

Doubt

A mediocre white kid of 9 has exactly the same merit.

>>24971734
Imagine being so petty you have to try to shit on a Harvard graduate who has drawn international acclaimed from every poetry organization, just because she's a Black woman. Are you that insecure that it makes you blow a gasket to see her succeeding?

Just shut the fuck up. You don't get to pretend this is good or that she earned anything. Not even ironically.

Her family is well-connected, isn’t it?
>>
>>24971818
In an age when rhyme is out of fashion in poetry, she is nothing less than an iconoclast
>>
>>24971734
Giving you the benefit of the doubt and presuming you aren't racist, the very fact that you're seething only indicates that her work is in fact provocative and emotionally effective.

she cute doe
>>
>>24972008
She's also a model now

I'm very racist, thank you. Her work is definitely provocative, in the way that someone on the street yelling horrific things about your mother is provocative. It's vulgar, it's insulting, and it's meant to be distressful and harmful. It's not provocative in the way that art is.

I am staying out of the Michelle business but it is somewhat diverting to see the pseudo-religiosity and knee jerk appeals to the high priests as opposed to just posting the text itself and showing or at least explaining why it is good.

That you all feel comfortable dismissing the backwoods retard in this way (when what is going on now is going on) is why i suspect his kind will eventually turn your kind into some variety of smoked meat or however they do it in kansas or southern Missouri or wherever he lives.

As a perpetual fence sitter I remain now, as always, comfy.

I wouldn't be too proud of being a coward if I were you, there's nothing particularly noble about it
