The only things worth understanding are universal.

Imagine trying to understand the words coming out of an American

>>25243480
Joke's on you retard. I can read whatever I want and I don't understand any of it.
>>
>>25243480
Wow… whatever will I do? I won’t ever be able to understand the writings of some mediocre American woman.
You could have said Melville OP.

Sixth post best post.
As a cosmopolitan citizen of the world I have no patience for petty provincialism, people might have found it endearing in the past but such parochialism has no place in our globalized world.

If you don't like Americans maybe try another website because this one is ours

I love Melville and Dickinson. That’s about it.

>>25243660
Ok but if you have a problem with us or something you can always just, you know, go somewhere else.

I don’t, none at all, friend. I’m just not overly fond of Plath, and me not being from New England doesn’t mean anything to me when it comes to truly appreciating her.

to be honest, Ariel is fucking kino. plath's command of assonance / raw uncompromising honesty really grabbed me the first time I read it. plath's journals are worth reading too, depressing as you would expect but simply unfair that someone could write that well off the cuff like that.

>dickinson over whitman
true patrician take. agree with this wholeheartedly. whitman's influence dwarfs dickinson's, but dickinson's genius dwarfs whitman's

Morning Song, Tulips, and The Moon and the Yew Tree are peak poetry to me, as an ignorant. They beam beautiful imagery into my mind and complex emotions into my soul.

>There is nothing like puking with somebody to make you into old friends.
Kino.
