    i really like how you recommend poetry collections by giving samples of the text or just describing the specific vibes you get from each. i would also recommend my poems won’t change the world by patrizia cavalli; i think her poems are really accessible. love your videos

    My favorite poet is Warsan Shire.

      I read Bless the Daughter and really loved it! Shire is another great, accessible poet

    Yes anybody who can read and write can write simply. Oliver did so in such a way that the simplicity was immediately profound and even metaphysical. At the same time her down-to-earth nature made her writing easily sellable without her sacrificing anything of her originality. She was blessed that everything just came together for her perfectly on the page and off 👍

    • @ebonykenae

      That’s a great way to put Oliver’s writing!

    Do you have a favourite out of Devotions and Dreamwork? I can only purchase one, for now 😅

    • @ebonykenae
      @ebonykenae  8 месяцев назад +2

      I think you should get Devotions! It has about 10 poems in there from Dreamwork, and you’ll be able to read more of her work
