![Gabbie Hanna disappoints me again [part 2]](/img/tr.png)
i like sleep. sleep is neat.
-rupi kaur
show stopping fiesta this made me laugh
- Dr Seuss ? 😭
Ugh i honestly hate rupi kaurs poetry with passion. I remember that weird phase when everybody on tumblr/insta was uploading poems from milk and honey💀dark times
I am disgusted
bodgie I’ve always disliked her work, it was lazy and pointless.
Me: This seems mean and unnecessary.
Her:I like sleep. Sleep is neat.
Me: Oh. I see.
Jade Neal I thought the same thing. I was thinking “not everyone can start off writing the best stuff”. Then she read that line, and I thought ohh it’s the same quality as something I jotted down in my middle school journal.
I've read better poems written by actual elementary students. Granted they were at the higher than average end of the class in their writing skills, but still.
@@kokopuppy57342 Me too. I was thinking that Rachel was going to make herself out to be a bit of a poetry snob, but no. It is genuinely bad. I also love that she contrasts it with some of her favourite poems, which really puts it into perspective.
100% felt the same way at first. There's nothing I enjoy about Gabbie, but I thought: "well maybe she's not Gabbie's audience". But no. No no no. She should have marketed this as an infant's board book. This is so bizarre.
i felt that way, too. like, no one starts out good at anything, but not everyone is selling their first draft
Rachel Oates: I can critique it if it doesn't live up to my expectations
Gabbie Hannah: You should manage your expectations
Omg 😂😂😂
Lmao
Its not the reader’s job to manage their expectations though. The reader pay hard earned money just to this? Ok Gabbie...
Oof, she actually said something like that in response to the criticism?? 😳
aishat yeah, she got in a scandal for promoting a scam, and when people complained she said they should “manage their expectations”
"I like sleep. Sleep is neat"
Edgar Allan Poe is shaking y'all
Akanime_ Chan Dude yes, Edgar is bad ass, I actually named my Mimikyu Poe after him
@@cinderfox5217 Omg really? That's so cool, Edgar is awesome =D
Akanime_ Chan fellow anime/video game loving poetry fans! I’ve never met another!
@@cinderfox5217 Ikr, usually they don't mix, but it's really cool meeting someone who likes the same things :)
Akanime_ Chan dude yeah, did you know that there’s a manga with a collection of Edgars stuff?
“Sleep” is such a horrible poem... oh my god. Sounds like something I’d have written when I was 8!
Tamara Ramadan i SWEAR it’s something i’ve jotted down in a notebook somewhere when i was meant to be taking notes 😂
Ten y/o me could do better
Honestly a child’s poem
I would be so proud of the poem.. If I were 6
Celeste C. McCarthy yea... sounds like a cute poem out of a child’s book; a child’s book.
Rachel is not just the wine mom we want, she’s the wine mom we need.
Devin Istre the wine mom we DESERVE
@@juliespiezia7807 She's too pure, we dont deserve her. haha
Looks like cordial to me 😂
She’s the wine mom I want tf😂
i wanna know what she's drinking, it looks so good lol
Gabbie: “ NO ONE UNDERSTANDS MY POETRY BECAUSE ITS TOO DEEP AND THEIR TOO NEURO-TYPICAL”
Her poetry: “I like sleep.
Sleep is neat.”
sOoOoOoO dEeEeEeEeEeEPpPpPpPpP
honestly, this might be kind of insensitive to me to say, but i roll my eyes whenever someone with adhd talks about how “neurotypicals can’t understand” them cuz ive been diagnosed with a lot of shit and out of everything that i have, adhd is by far the least intrusive of them. i cant imagine there are too many aspects of the adhd experience that most people can’t understand
@@familyguyfreemoviedownload8314 nah i don't think it's insensitive it really is annoying to be honest
i did. it. tell me wut you think 😂
“Sleep”
i like sleep.
sleep is neat.
i like the colorful dreams
dreams of what could never be
i like the emptiness, the softness
and who i am, the me
of an untrue reality
i like the role play, the pretending
that all the bad things are gonna end
and all the broken promises are mending
of all the apologies they’re sending
i like the chaos, the break away
from our modern day
of 9-5, the never ending grind
the exhausting repetition of this life
i like the nothingness, the void
i love how i can hurt, but there’s no pain
i love how there’s nothing to be gained
from a lie
i love how you try and try and try and never get anywhere
i love how nothing matters
how no one cares in the void
no stares in the void
no one even glances your way
i like how your shoulder relax
and your back cracks
and you sigh, a deep long sigh
a clear mind
nothing to grasp for, no reason to try
i like sleep
i love the vast, peaceful, the empty, chaotic make believe.
but mostly,
i like how you never have to compete
there’s no one in this world
the world of dream
this world of sleep
there’s no one but me
just me
just me and my make believes
Ayo but that’s like so deep sleep is neat is symbolic of her own something
Gabbie made it out to be like you trashed her and her entire presence but this is just like...a legitimate review? Lmao
I think it was because of the tittle she can see that and get defensive but if you are going to put out a poetry book you need to see a title that that and think wow why I wonder why she thought that and yeah someone saying your poetry is bad can hurt but come on it’s not bullying it can come of as rude but to say it is bullying is putting down victims of bullying
@@Hecateofcrossroads she’s just egotistical. Imagine all the flak the writers of Game of Thrones got for the last 2seasons, wouldn’t we be laughing at D&D if they came out and started playing the victim like Hanna?
@@ampleoloruntogbe1434 Wasn't about the video it was about the tweets.
@@arronmalt who cares? She can ignore tweets, no?
Gabbie loves to be the victim.
Her poem “Recess” sounds like a semi-political shitpost you’d see on tumblr
Sage V LMAOO i was thinking that too
I've just read your comment after commenting myself :d
I agree, and the 'advice' ones also give me a very tumblr-ish vibe
She probably copied one and used a thesaurus to change a few words
I just shit myself
Christopher Das I don’t know why but this is making me laugh really hard 😂🤣
“ If I paid money for your book, then I can criticize it” that’s actually a good point tbh
Absolutely! I remember I first came across this point of view when a RUclipsr destroyed her James Charles make up palette, and everyone were criticizing her, until someone pointed out: well, she bought it, it's hers, she can do whatever she wants
It really is. Any art posted publically, especially art for sale, is open for criticism.
Kat Momo I think it’s more of why buy something just to destroy it you know? Like that’s time effort and money and resources that went into it. By destroying something without even getting a use out of it you’re basically just wasting resources and that’s not very good for the environment.
Suicidal Nematode well i don’t really think she bought the book just to criticize it. she went in with no opinion, since she hasn’t read anything else from gabbie, and when she finished the book, she had an opinion and decided to share it. she shared it in such a polite and nice way too she was very supportive and showed ways to better the poetry
jolie rose forbes I’m not talking about the book though I’m talking about someone destroying something for no good reason like the makeup palette. I never mentioned the book. She can criticize the book all she wants cause she paid for it but destroying something for clout is stupid IMO
imagine being a tree and dying just so that a book like this could be made
Did you get that from Alizee? Lol
Xena's Warpaint who??
I would be ashamed
Looking at it like that makes me so depressed
its the dead trees blood on her hands for me✍🏻
No wonder Gabbie is upset by this review .You can intelligently explain her own poems better than her and you can articulate yourself without be crood and having curse.
While holding a glass of wine 🍷😌
@@509wildflower what does that change
@@What-fv1yl
It doesn’t change anything, it just seems cool, sassy, relaxed
Crood is a childrens movie about cavemen
Crude
I hate to be the grammar police but how
@@Bootystank99659while talking about someone being articulate...
I really thought this would be a trashy takedown of her writing. Instead it was technical and smart. Really cool to see something like that nowdays
I know! I was really enjoying it too. Also, ARMY?
ming ming
i like how yall have to bring in army into every single video 😳
ming ming luv no offense but stfu about bts for 2 seconds please
i was just about to say this! definitely surprised, but not at all mad
TBH, most writers who market toward young adults and above nowadays are so trashy. I read DC Trip by Benincasa, a New York Bestseller, and the writing is absolute garbage and zero passion put forward. It's worse than Erika's 50 Shades series.
Oh my god the first poem sounds like a kids book
ironmanontheironthrone
Which would be totally fine.
In a kids book.
Not even. Shel Silverstein wrote children's poetry and a lot of what he wrote was pretty deep when I look back.
Yes -- Shel Silverstein wrote MUCH better poetry than this, as do Lewis Carroll, Edward Lear and others. There are some excellent poets whose work is directed to children. In contrast, I can't helping thinking that the Hanna poem about sleep is of similar awfulness (as far as structure, rhyme, meter, etc., _not_ content) to some of the "verses" in Ken Ham's kids' books. (Which Rachel has done videos about too, of course.)
@@Jacky.c.v no, even a kids book have a little bit of alternate meaning in its poetry lmao
It doesn't sound like poetry written for kids, it sounds like it was written by a kid!
Wait... 😳😳😳THIS can’t be the creator/video that everyone is talking about!!? This woman is phenomenal and what intelligence to even dissect Gabbie’s book & give us other poems as reference to support her opinion.
I really hope this creator keeps doing commentary like this, and I’m definitely subscribing to see more of her content!
@@username.not.known2473 I’ve never seen the definition of deflection before!
Went down a rabbit hole 🕳 and found helloleesh. She’s another INTELLIGENT creator that GH had issues with... chick is unreal with her petty problems.
Maybe if she stopped hanging out with yes ma’am friends, she would know how to interact with humans.
IKR!! I just came here after the drama and I'm shoock... this is just intelligent, well thought-out criticism. Gabbie Hannah had no right to say all those terrible things about Rachel. SHE JUST GAVE HER GENUINE ADVICE!!
i feel the exact same way. crazy.
Gabbie now trying to say this video is harassment and bullying. Come on. This was a SUPER respectful video despite all of the valid criticisms.
Ugh... You sound SO neurotypical!
😂
agust d 😏
@@mehnaz00 Yessss you know 😏😏
@@morganmariex we stan 💗
@@mehnaz00 *Me getting sudden flashbacks of Agust D MV's video* :😳 ⚰
Her poems should have been a child’s book. It would have worked better.
Human Being honestly this isn’t even an insult, like it would make sense cause of the title adultolesence, she could have made it like explaining adult problems and adult life to a kids in a very surface level way. That would be very interesting, to see her explain multi level complex problems into small and simple sentences.
Milk Exactly
Just as long as it doesn’t turn the poor kids angsty
She’d have to fix all those “red words” though lol
YES sleep sounds like an amazing poem for little children; i just hate the fact that it's in a book made for teens to adults
This makes me mad because actual poets need to face legitimate, constant rejection to get published.
Yup and Gabbie thought that her RUclips clout was enough and sadly enough, it was.
Publishers know that they can make money with a built in audience and so they dont tell these youtubers that their work is embarrassingly bad.
@@TheOwlQueen exactly what I was thinking. Publishers aren't going to publish something that isn't good, unless that person already has a fanbase, then they really don't care.
And that’s another reason I don’t like editorials (apart from their greediness, which later they blame on piracy) and prefer self-publishing.
Claire Kennedy SO TRUE
bo burnahm: *writes a song about going to chipotle and getting a burrito only to have the burrito fall apart making him upset and the burrito is actually a metaphor for his life and how the pressure of fame and being a comic has put serious strain on his mental health
gabbie Hanna: i like sleep, sleep is neat
You made me rewatch bo burnham's shows because of this comment. His work is 1000x better than anything Gabbie could ever write or preform
@@ahshitherewegoagain7461 i totally forgot the first part of the song i mentioned!
he complains about how he can't fit his hand in a pringles can, on the surface it's just him making fun of the fact that kanye was complaining about something so simple and petty (his shirts not selling). but on the inside, it's a commentary about how society puts so much unrealistic expectations onto everyone which why he asks everyone to raise their hand if they too can't fit their hand inside of a pringle can. the song goes on on and explains how we continue this cycle onto our children with the line "i want to have a daughter so i can finally have someone in the house who can fit their hand inside a pringle can"
i saw an interview of bo where he said that the burrito part wasnt a metaphor but only a thing he thought was funny. still interesting to think about though
@@Amandascx yeah it's pretty obvious that it was a metaphor, bo's just pulling people's leg as he usually does
@@puppyhowler i mean idk you can watch the interview. he said people where trying to read to much into it, but that maybe it was a subconscious thing
title: LINK
actual poem: in bio
gabbie: READ BETWEEN THE LINES YALL DONT UNDERSTAND!!!!!
This is clever 🤣
r u kidding me w “sleep”?? she thought that was okay to include in a god damn poetry book that’s NOT geared towards children?
Reilly's Reads she is a child
Actually that was the point. To write child rhymes. She expressed that.
Wait I wanna read that? How horrible it id?
Is that it, the one in the thumbnail?
Suyash Awasthi yes. Adultolescence. I bought it but wasn’t impressed. I didn’t realize it was supposed to be so simplistic and I didn’t enjoy it as much as I thought I wiuld
Sophia Troanska even a 5 year old would read “Sleep” and be like ???
Jesus Christ. These are so bad I genuinely cant tell if she's trolling.
I hope she is, but I really don’t think so unfortunately.
she prolly thinks that she is really deep and good lol
Either a troll or not whats really ofensive is that she thinks people should give their money to read a poem about how she is a lazy ass.
if she's not-
as someone who watched gabbie while she promoted the heck outta this book, it’s... not trolling. they are personal to her.... oof
It makes me kind of mad that she’s supposedly this great advocate for mental health? She turned cutting, which I have struggled with, and turns it into a joke to sell? I think she doesn’t realise a poem like that will do more harm than good. I don’t know if I’m overly sensitive, but that poem made my struggles feel completely invalidated.
you're not overly senstive. it's genuinely disrespectful. its like if she'd turned something like death into a cheap joke. doing anything of that caliber is incredibly insensitive and disgusting. you're not in the wrong for recognizing that.
Definitely not over-sensitive. That poem is disgusting.
Late to the party, but you're not overly sensitive. I struggled with self harm too, and that poem made it feel like a joke. Here's to hoping you're recovering here in 2023
Gabbie made a video about defending her poetry and it really got me mad. She just told everyone who criticized it as “not looking deep enough into it.” No, people looked into it, Gabbie just didn’t leave anything for people to look into. She needs to learn that intention doesn’t matter, it’s what the reader gets from the poem. You shouldn’t have to defend it.
art should speak for itself; what you're trying to say should be evident in the work. if she has to spell it out then she didn't do a good job conveying meaning in the poems
Look I LOVE poetry and all forms of art. I love vague poems because it interests and makes the reader more eager to find out of the actual meaning of the poem. But Gabbie’s “poetry” is just SO basic and simple with childish rhymes and vocabulary that its just plain, basic, bad, and childish. I mean Shel Silverstein’s poems are really good, but its just not for Gabbie. If she has to explain these basic af “poems” then she’s just a lost cause I’m sorry she should stick to one thing at a time like her music poetry is just not for her.
Rachel mentioned spending time with Gabbie's poem but not seeing anything
exactly how deep is someone supposed to try to look into a puddle?
Bro look into what? I’m looking into it. I’m looking into nothing
they sound like poems elementary school kids have to do in a writing task for english.
1.2 *thousand* likes and no replies
wtf is happening
Not a problem with your comment of course, its just that... it doesnt seem to add up...? Are people that "shy" or agree, or do we have a deeper problem?
I always recall a veritasium video from way back, calling out non-bot clickfarms on facebook... maybe youtube has grown to such size that those things start appearing? The problem frequently points towards asian countries where those clickfarms are based, which would be underpaying people to "like" all sorts of random shit they encounter.
I feel even a bit racist saying this, "the new people are a problem", and im so sorry if i do, but im trying to announce an engrained problem with social media... and we dont really have laws regulating it.
Am i rambling too much? Sorry
thats deep man
It sounds like the poems I made in 4th grade for an assignment... so I agree 😂
The first poem I feel like could be an illustrated children’s book, it sort of reads like one
It isn't even good enough for that
it looks like it was made by a child
@@jamestor6700 I feel like that's an insult to children
Said the same thing!
She's got nothing on Dr. Seuss or Shel Silverstein

I can't believe Gabbie thought it's bullying... She should just go back to school or something
*Gabbie files a complaint against each professor that critiques her work* 😂
Bold of you to assume she’s ever been to school
She's just allergic to feedback. And reality.
Go *back* to school? She acts like she never left… (junior high, to be precise)
Fuck no!
Im a fifth grade teacher. I need kids who come into my class writing at a third grade - at the very least!
Also, being told to "manage my expectations" and being called a "narcissistic abuser" day after day would be an issue. I'm not cut out for this prison!
Side note- your dog is an *angel*
I love how he reacts to Rachel's moods and seems so concerned and loving.... like "hey hey are you ok? Let me give you another snuggle!"
khazanys yes! ☺️
The way he judged her for saying she used to like gabbie made me laugh.
@@khazanys I totally agree, but I just want to point out that I think it's a girl.
Oh dear. Poetry, written by someone who lies, gaslights and is an awful person in general, is shallow?
_Who would have thought_
There are many fairly awful personalities out there though who created the most beautiful poetry and prose though, the most screwed up writers generally seem to win.
I'm actually genuinely surprised by the awfulness of her poetry.
@@Nina-cd6uw It probably has to do with the fact Gabbie doesn't have a creative bone in her body.
@@elvingearmasterirma7241 But why publish it? 😂
This is suicide. 😂
@@Nina-cd6uw Because her ego surpasses her ability to think logically.

to a better place
I’ve never watched Gabbie or Rachel, but somehow I ended up watching Gabbies Instagram story and came here... Rachel IMO was nice with her critique . She spent money on this book, and is super into poetry and gave her opinion... she even said at the beginning that something she may dislike others may love and vise versa. The way Gabbie came at Rachel I thought this video was about to be SO MEAN. It’s actually not...
It took me a while to find this because I was searching for recent videos. So you are telling me she is freaking out over a video from a YEAR ago...
@@Thatblingbitch right! I’m confused as to why this is just now poppin off
There are many male creators who were so much meaner, but Gabbie hates women who don’t subjugate themselves to her.
Gabbie isn't going off about this review, she sent Rachel her second book Dandelion after Rachel had made this review. Many believe she sent the book so Rachel would be"nicer" in her review. It's after the second review about six months ago that Gabbie started the hate train because Rachel reviewed it honestly
@@annavictrix No, she hates valid, accurate criticism, because she can’t argue with it. Dudes being mean and calling her stupid or ugly doesn’t hurt like being shown how shallow and frivolous her obnoxious personality is.
Hopefully she doesn’t see this and get so butthurt that she’ll make an instagram story about it
jenni Valladares or dm for hours lol
jenni Valladares i was thinking the same thing lol
"Am I good @ poetry??" Poll posted on her insta story for her fans to vote lmao.
OMG¡¡ are you serious¿¡
@@deadfat4071 that'd be hilarious
Something I've noticed about Gabbie is that she's very fake deep. She's always talking about how deep her music is and there's so many underlying messages but her lyrics are all straight to the point and obvious, any meaning she does try to add seems so forced.
I think this is a big reason why she chose to do a poetry book. Poetry's main point is to carry a message through your words and she chose to write poetry to seem deep. Her poems in reality aren't crafted to have a deep underlying meaning that you wouldn't realize until you've reread it tons of times, it's very straight to the point like you had said.
I try to be polite and not Say anything but positive comments but I can’t help it Gabbie in general is not talented what so ever. she cannot sing at all.and when she first came out she did Comedy videos which I thought were all right. but I think this some what fame got to her head .Gabbie has become so fake now. honestly can’t stand her.not a fan at all..somebody is spewing bullshit into her ears saying that she’s amazing and can do everything and she’s the best singer dancer whatever and she’s just talentless in my opinion. but that’s just my opinion only one person but I just had to say it she sucks donkey...
As much as I love ❤️ gabbie, I agree 😞
YES
@@erikkajuvonen275 i mean she can sing, u don't have to lie to dislike her. She's a great singer but she's um.. She seems fake deep to me. And she seems like an attention seeker
Bigfoot yeah obviously she’s not the best singer but she can sing better than most other RUclips singers
I live in a house
I have a pet mouse
This poem is deep
Cars go beep beep
I like this one, it made me chuckle. 10/10 better than gabbies

@@MissEdge102 hey that rhymes :D
If it rhymes, it's automatically good.

Existence is tiring
Day after day
I could use some inspiring
To numb my pain
I'm slowly dying
But I'm still trying to
Make myself feel okay
Literally don't know how we went from THIS to what Gabbie is accusing her of
Adultolescence?? At least she's aware of her stunted maturity level trapped in an adult body.
SuperMeanSadie every now and again I click on one of her and die inside all over again
I seriously think she’s getting less and less mature and the baby voice she always does is so annoying!
Oh snap - got it in one! 😂
I wonder, why is she stunted? Like that's concerning but mostly I'm just nosy.
@@neftalicortez2625 some people just never grow up there is no reason. Maybe she's just surrounded by enablers.
@@ewwwitscosso2292 I can not stand to look at her. I think I saw her music video a few years ago and that was enough for me. Forever.
Gabbie: sleep is neat
Actual poets: am I a joke to you
maryam aln Fuck it I’m bored
Sleep is neat
I grip its neck
Slam it’s head violently
Batter and bruise
The frail being
Until my eyes are black
My head is hammered
Sleep is indeed neat
For those who can have it
Crying beckons me elsewhere
The battle is won by me
Shouting persists in my head
By young and old
Sleep is neat
I just wish god would give it to me
Jessica Sanchez that’s really good 👏👏👏 you should try writing more :D
Jessica Sanchez That’s great! I once wrote an acrostic about buckets in 5th grade. It’s just as great as sleep! Not actual sleeping. Gabbie’s poem.
Hazel Macaraig OMIGOSH you should show me!! Or better yet publish and sell it for money
Jessica Sanchez damn girl! Show off! Jk😂 seriously though that was great, if you haven’t already I think you should consider poetry as a career path
The fact that gabbie constantly talks about mental health and how she’s an “advocate” and complains about how people are always “abusing” her by having opinions about her behavior and work, yet thought that poem “cut” was a good look is DISGUSTING.
I just read it. As a person with schizoaffective disorder bipolar type (think schizophrenia mixed with bipolar) who used to self harm and has had multiple suicide attempts - nearly succeeded one time - that made me sick. At first I thought, "poorly written, but I can relate." Then she tried to make a funny and just made me angry. Super callous and lacking of any self awareness.
While I'm watching your video all I can think about is... Did she really had the AUDACITY to say you're not intellectual enough to understand her art? WOW!
Right???!! That was the bit that really got me, insulting Rachel's intelligence when she's such a beautiful, kind, intellectual person with an incredible understanding of poetry just got me so angry
Gabbie is like: EVERYBODY SHOULD LOVE ME AND YOUR OPINION DOESN'T MATTER BECAUSE IM A CELEBRITY HAHAHA
@@soph1508 rachel put more intellectual work into this video than gabbie did her whole book
She’s so pretentious (gabbie not Rachel)
@@coldhaixx1905 she’s not even though. I had never, ever heard of her until I found repzilla’s channel while watching videos on Eugenia Cooney, who is herself a RUclips d-list “celeb”. I also regularly look at influencer gossip forums like lolcow and I STILL hadn’t heard of her even once until just the other day lmao. So…hardly a celebrity 😂😂😂
gabbie hanna is literally just a middle schooler forced to write poems for english class with too much access to a thesaurus
Not enough access to a thesaurus
I bet she went to google to find a rhyming website
...I think you just summed up her personality actually. you put into words what we have all been thinking lmao
I’m actually a middle schooler and I write better poetry than her.
no, shes writes just like a primary school student
it sounds like a collection of twitter drafts that were too long :/
she sure did her research on twitter lol
Some people actually made a book on tweets, did Rupi Kaur drawings and sold a TON OF BOOKS. People will actually buy this.
julia I’m dead
I never liked the argument "you can't do better, so your arguments are invalid." It sounds reasonable for a second until you think about it. Okay, maybe I can't do better. Does that mean I can't criticize it? I can't cook, so if I go to a restaurant and I don't like the food, am I not allowed to complain because I can't do better? Of course not.
I mean, I don't like him, but look at Simon Cowell, he can't sing for shit, but he can judge, and know a good singer when he sees one. A lot of movie directors can't act, but they can direct an actor. I can't draw or paint for shit, but I know a good art work when I see one. This argument of you can't do better, it's such a patronising argument
@@anapaulapaco5514 Exactly! (sorry for the late reply, I didn't even see this comment)
I don't understand at all how this is supposed to be "written from the point of view of an ab*sed child". I feel like GH doesn't remember the actual book she wrote, just the one she wanted to write or imagined she wrote.
I mean my expectation for the poetry was low... but I didn't expect it to be this basic. Side note: I would 100% listen to you read more poetry.
Oh god I just heard the first poem and i..i..I..you need to have no expectations to enjoy it.( the poem not the reading of it)
I agree.
I agree to both statements. Rachel has a really good reading voice especially for something like poems.
Manage your expectations
I rewrote gabbie's sleep poem if it actually we're about depression like you had suggested. It's still not perfect but perhaps a better/more meaningful alternative to just liking sleep:
I like sleep. Sleep is neat.
Sleep means everything to me.
I like sleep. Sleep is sweet.
Sweeter than what life could bring
When I sleep, I can dream
Of what I'm truly meant to be
Instead I'm here, where I can't think
Instead my mind is on the brink
That's why I love my 12 hour blink
And wish it were eternity.
THATS REALLY GOOD
Way better than hers, congrats!
saraaahhh ismyname I enjoyed this so much ?? That actually made me feel like poetry is supposed to do lol
i actually really dig this
i wish i wrote this cause this is how i used to feel
Love how I came here to laugh at Gabbies "poems", but ended up falling in love with your pashion and knowledge of poems
Yes. I could listen to her read poetry all day, especially one's written in a Yorkshire accent. Adorable.
Pashion?
Are you trying to say fashion or passion? Or are you cleverly merging the two words?
I’m so glad you kept this up. It’s the principle. She can’t bully her way to a good review. She needs to take the criticism seriously and actually work hard on her poetry, instead of just lazily writing a bunch of “poems” then freaking out at anyone who has criticism.
i like sleep is worse than my 6th grade acrostic poem about communism
Pren hey op where’s the acrostic
I'm very interested in reading that ngl
op please we would appreciate the poem
Don't you mean... *our* poem, komrade?
Kharol Tain *shocked pikachu face
"Cut" reminds me of those people who cut their hair in the bathroom because they're bored and call it a "mental breakdown"
She’s literally that exact person LOL I hate those people
The people that decide to call “mental breakdowns” crying for like 30 minutes over something and then posting it on social media sicken me tbh
Or maybe they try to seek comfort so much that they turn to those methods even if they seem foolish for us? I mean, people who have mental breakdowns are not easy to understand. We could speculate here all day long why they act like that and still fail to see what’s the underlying reason.
I, for one, experienced being called an attention seeker because I had cuts on my wrists back then (I stopped doing them though). They laughed at me when they get a glimpse of it. Not trying to guilt trip any of you, point of why I said this is because there might really be a good reason why people do stuff and assuming something that drags them down is just sad...
Don’t attack gays like this :(
I have actual mental issues and just chopped and dyed my hair for fun and Bc of people who change their appearance and call it a mental breakdown it makes people with actual mental issues look irrelevant Bc me chopping my hair off was just fun and completely disconnected from my mental illness but the stereotype of that still does damage
Even nonsense poetry and childlike poetry like Edward Lear and Shel Silverstein have at least one or 2 layers to read into if not more, this book isn't poetry
Came for the drama, stayed for the poetry lesson
Gabbie’s poems be like:
I love cats
My cat is nice
my cat eats lots of little mice
This is better than her poems 😂
My cat pounces and prances, he sings and he dances
A clever fella he is
A sneaky snake-y crawly wolly little lion that roars
like a human he is, yet he walks on all fours
I added to it,was that good? I'd personally think it was better than Gabbie's
Ollie Seago that’s amazing man
:)
Ollie Seago shit that’s actually good lol
So basically her book was only a success because of her 10 year old fans.... not because of actually good poetry.... interesting.
I used to be a fan of her (I'm an adult btw) so I bought the book when it came out. And I guess I'm not alone on that. You only realise how bad it is when you read it obviously, but at that point the sale already counts in regards to the best selling list so
Philine Wreck yeah I agree. I was going to buy it because I too was a huge fan, but any time I see top youtubers hit a milestone like that, I can’t help but think it’s because they have a fan base. Not actually anything special about them. Like Logan Paul’s podcast got nominated for an award.... and I’ve listened to it before and it’s nothing special.
i remember watching her a lot when her book was in the makings and she really tried to milk her fans into pre-ordering the book.. i even bought it myself and i ended up being really disappointed because it was so bad.
she subliminallt forced her subs to buy her shitass books
@@mosschievous5862 damn that really sucks, I only heard of her through Dr. Mike's video and I thought she seemed cool. Now that I hear about this, I wonder if she's even careful of what she says.
I've never heard of Rachel or Gabbie until now. And I've never taken an interest in poetry before. But this video is remarkable. Rachel is so passionate, knowledgeable, and constructive here that I am absolutely enthralled. Subscribed.
Thank you so much :)
Gabbie deadass just looked at the click bait titles of the videos and left it at that.... if she had bothered to watch the contents of these vids she would see this is not even close to bullying. Please keep doing your thing you actually got me back into writing poetry :)
Gabbie doesn’t care. She doesn’t want good faith critique. She wants only praise. So it doesn’t matter what this video is really like; she’s going to claim it was bullying or abuse to make herself seem victimized so her fans rush to manage her emotions and ego (and buy her books).
jesus christ i legitimately wrote better poetry in the 3rd grade
i love your profile pic
@@winkydinkytoodlesnoot8141 thanks!
She should only change the name from Adultloscence to Adolescence because that's the quality of her poems. i dont like being mean but she actually.
Warrick Low adolescence is basically teenage stage. We write waaaaay better poetry than that
Elyssae i wrote a poem about cheese cause my text book said it hadn’t been done before and my teacher said it was actually not bad for a first poem:
Oh cheese,
Please
know that you keep me in peace.
Oh cheese!
When I spend time with you I feel a release
From the pain
My skin begs you not tease
Meeting you makes me feel less insane
My insides hate how I indulge in your keens
Oh, cheese.
You see this sucks but you can see the effort freshmen me tried putting into it.

came here after watching Gabbie Hanna slandering you on her insta stories and may I just say...you speak so eloquently and make very intelligent points. It is clear you know what you are talking about and anyone who has ever studied poetry will be able to grasp the points you make and most likely agree. One of the reasons poetry exists is to be critiqued, so I hope you aren't letting Gabbie's vile words hurt you! :)
The fact that she rejects criticism of her work honestly shows that she doesnt care about the medium. Analyzing poetry is like.... one of the most important things about consuming poetry. I've never met a poet who wasnt interested in bettering their work by receiving feedback.
Girl really said “I like sleep, sleep is neat” and thought she did sumn LMAO
If you dig deep you realise there is more to the poem. The poem is actually about suicide and how she wants to be dead.
Erinlianna 03 we know. It’s very obvious
@@e.l98 amazing. Deep. Wow.
Erinlianna 03 she is not deep but she tries lmao
i like sleep.
sleep is neat.
i like the colorful dreams
dreams of what could never be
i like the emptiness, the softness
and who i am, the me
of an untrue reality
i like the role play, the pretending
that all the bad things are gonna end
and all the broken promises are mending
of all the apologies they’re sending
i like the chaos, the break away
from our modern day
of 9-5, the never ending grind
the exhausting repetition of this life
i like the nothingness, the void
i love how i can hurt, but there’s no pain
i love how there’s nothing to be gained
from a lie
i love how you try and try and try and never get anywhere
i love how nothing matters
how no one cares in the void
no stares in the void
no one even glances your way
i like how your shoulder relax
and your back cracks
and you sigh, a deep long sigh
a clear mind
nothing to grasp for, no reason to try
i like sleep
i love the vast, peaceful, the empty, chaotic make believe.
but mostly,
i like how you never have to compete
there’s no one in this world
the world of dream
this world of sleep
there’s no one but me
just me
just me and my make believes
what do you think? i made a poem starting with her first 2 lines
i feel like comparing gabbie to carol ann duffy is just insulting to carol ann duffy lol
It’s like comparing Cowdenbeath Football Team to Real Madrid
It's like comparing To Kill A Mockingbird Atticus finch to Go Set A Watchman Atticus Finch lol
Its like comparing the Titanic and Riverdale
Pearlie Grace i think she was trying to show what poetry is supposed to be and what is good poetry
Glug Glug yeah I agree, I think she is trying to show how real poetry is supposed to be written.
Rewatching these Gabbie Hannah videos and writing down every insult, harassment, narcissistic abuse, and exploitation.
My notes are blank.
Hi Rachel, I see that you're liking comments so I hope you read this. I just wanted to say that you inspired me to read more poetry and really give it a shot. I had forgotten how much I loved it and got out of it. What's happened with Gabbie is unfortunate, and I know you know better than to equate value with "relevance" but what she said was in such poor taste and also untrue. I thought I'd let you know you're extremely relevant. Maybe to a smaller community, but it's a community you've built and retained over the years. I'm always amazed at how regularly you post and how much effort and thought goes into each video. I don't agree with all of your opinions, not always, but that doesn't take away from the value you've created in the world. Keep doing you
Thank you SO much ❤️
✨This was beautifully stated! 🤍✨
Perfect example of just because you can doesn’t mean you should
It literally sounds like my 2nd grade poetry book. If I could find that, it’d be the same.
She can't tho
Shut up
You can if you put EFFORT
Yes, and Gabbie clearly didn’t put in enough effort; It’s abundantly clear. Lmao. But hey, if you genuinely liked it & thought she did a good job, that’s cool & you’re entitled to your opinion. You can also still be a fan of someone even if they do something you don’t like or don’t think they did very well on.
Rachel: ~speaks in cursive~
Gabbie: *speaks in Comic Sans*
Whats wrong with comic sans? Mah boi sans uses it to talk and he’s much smarter then gabbie lmao
more like Arial, bland.
@@devinsdead921 nah it's Papyrus: unprofessional, unconventional and yet somehow still not interesting.
Brent Wolff hey man comic sans deserves better. It’s easy to read, particularly if you’re dyslexic (like me)
I don’t think I can say the same of her poetry
😂😭
Rhys Grammling omg couldn't have said it better 😂
At the sake of giving Gabbie the benefit of the doubt I decided to watch this. This is not bullying. This is a critique and review from someone who knows what they’re talking about. She compares the poems to multiple other writers who wrote about similar themes. Gabbie’s rampage is unbelievable and though I’ve been less of a fan of hers for years, this is too much. Ridiculous. I’m sorry you’re experiencing the backlash of her tantrum.
Watching this after gabbie went on her rampage and honestly... I feel like she has never seen any of your videos, and definetly not the ones about her book. Your videos are really informative and entertaining, which is never easy. I actually really liked gabbie up until now, I'm kind of glad she showed her true colors. Now I'm subscribed to someone who has actual substance in their videos lol
Same here! Glad I came here and subscribed!
Gabbies poems be like:
Trees have bark
Dogs bark
I am one with nature
Wouldn't that mean she has to care about anything other than herself, e.g. nature?
How did that old thing go?
"I'm a bitch, well, bitches are female dogs, dogs bark, bark grows on trees, trees are in nature, nature is beautiful, therefore I am beautiful."
That's how all of this reads
Actually that is a lot more appealing than anything she wrote - it’s simple yet funny, even removed from the mocking of Gabbie, it can be interpreted as a mockery of a certain subsection of society.
Essentially you’ve managed to create two layers in three sentences which is a lot more than Gabbie ever did
Genuinely if you flip the first two lines you even get a proper rhythm.
“Dogs Bark
Trees have bark
I am one with nature”
Also as the person above pointed out it is reminiscent of a playground rhyme, which combined with its simplicity, if it is taken as a criticism of a subculture if society would imply that that subculture isn’t very smart and relies on 8th grade intellectualism.
So layer one: a funny short poem of someone say in the park
Layer two: a comment on egocentric subculture being simple, vapid and self important
Layer three: One could argue that you are saying that to enjoy nature one must too regress to a simplistic childlike state, although I am not sure I could write a super convincing argument on that...
I’m sorry, I just really enjoyed those three lines, they’re genuinely quite good imo. Yes I realize this is ridiculous
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😭
Yeah these are horrible.. they’re like poems from English class in middle school. Yikes.
elementary school*
Hi Bun / I was talking about the first one she read of Gabbie’s. That one was very middle school-ish
you mean elementary
*elementary school
I can't believe gabbie openly admitted to NOT watching any of these, not only is this the BEST criticism I've ever seen, but even if she didn't say any of her first points (that are so incredibly helpful that IM considering writing again and I haven't done that since I was 15) the one mocking self harm is just flat out disrespectful and if eye were a gabbie fan id be demanding an apology for having me spend money on some shit like that
Hope your writing goes well! 💕
Ten minutes ago I didn't know that Carol Ann Duffy existed and now I have to read everything she ever wrote

People gotta understand poetry doesn’t have to rhyme
Right? It can be fantastic, obviously, but so often it just forces the author to phrase things a certain way that feels unnatural or doesn't get their point across and gAH-
Ayah13 yesss, and like there’s so much u wanna say but the mindset of wanting it to rhyme threws it out
@@seisappho In,,, I wanna say eighth grade,,, we had to write sonnets, and I struggled with that so much because there were so many things I wanted to write about but I could never get what I wanted because I had to use iAMBIC PENTAMETER AND RHYME AND HHH-
and just because it rhymes doesn't mean it's poetry
Yeah but most poetry is good ya get me i know theirs a lot of strange poems out there but like they are still amazing works
So this is what Gabbie had a Twitter and Instagram tantrum about?
Ye
Ok, Gabbie Hanna must be insane, because this video is very respectful and informative. I expected something harsher. Don't let this narcissist get to you and keep up the good work. You seem very intelligent and well-spoken. Immediately subscribing to you.
narcissist is literally a medical term 💀
Her poem “sticks” was actually quite nice until the last four lines. Completely ruined it and made it angsty self hatred, which is a common thing she likes to shove in literally anything she writes. There’s lots of problems with her writing, but specifically the angsty, edgy extreme grasp at attention that’s plaguing her work is seriously dragging her down. Mental illness is not a trend, and the attempt she’s making at making a statement to relate to youth is.. sad. It’s an obvious lack of connection to society due to her other problematic behaviors, and maybe someday when she works at her issues she may find writing to be more kind to her.
I completely agree. Literally every single Gabbie piece in this video was just absolutely drenched in edge and self-hatred and angst. It’s so overwhelming and wayy over done, and although I don’t think there’s anything wrong with having an angsty poem, hers just are not even a little bit subtle or elegant. Her writing sounds like an edgy teen dumping their feelings on tumblr, not an adult trying to tell a dark story through art. And there’s just nothing considerate about any of them, especially that last one about cutting hair. She’s so aggressive about the depression theme and it just makes it all sound like a joke. It’s very frustrating to read, I think especially as someone who has been surrounded by these very serious issues their whole life.
I agree, out of all the poems she read out in this video by Gabbie I quite liked Sticks until the obvious twist and sudden change in rhyme structure that completely distrupted the flow of the poem. Just made the last few lines difficult to read and felt rushed and I couldn't help but think she was basically saying, "I'm an edgy teenager who uses depression as a trendy personality trait"
My sister tends to lean more towards this with normal conversation and it's kind of depressing but not even in the way she's trying to be.
her music as well. 😔
very well said, I totally agree
I liked the first line of sleep so I tried to rewrite from there:
I like sleep! Sleep is neat!
Into my bed's warm arms I softly creep,
And within the monsters kindly belly,
I searched for a sign that I was ready,
Emerged from covers pressed all clean,
And fell upon my floor to see,
The scattered pieces of what I was,
Laid out like a scrabble board.
I like sleep! Sleep is neat!
Cause when I dream,
Nothing is quite what it seems,
The huntsman's biting, human axe,
The princess's final gasp,
To disappear and sadly weep,
Lost to that eternal sleep.
I like sleep! Sleep is neat!
When I return ask me these,
From what plane do I softly breath,
What fans the air across her kneck,
To lose itself in giving back?
edit: hi! i dont want to be one of those people but thanks for all your lovely comments! i dont know how to respond to all of you but I promise I read them all!
@Lava thank you!!
Much better💙
@@mewmew6158 Thanks!
How dare you take such a shitty poem and make it so amazing.... this level of talent cannot exist in one person I swear
I love the contrast, especially at “To disappear and sadly weep/lost to that eternal sleep./ I like sleep! Sleep is neat!” Almost like youre trying to convince yourself
I'm so very late, but I feel like poetry is using the subtle quirks of human language to communicate human experience. It can be plain language, of course, but there's a difference between "I love you" and "stars are born inside my chest every time i speak your name". This just doesn't read (to me) that it's trying to communicate anything deeper, it feels like tweets that happen to rhyme. And that's what really disappointed me.
Rachel, I found your channel last year, and as a beginner writer, I found your commentary so entertaining and insightful. You're actually the person who inspired me to get into the art form and start writing my own poems. I had this sort of dull interest in poetry, but after you made me kinda see the beauty in the craft, what goes into it, and what makes poetry poetry, I had developed this deep love for it. Poetry has become a big part of my life and identity and I can't imagine it any other way. This unfound criticism towards you hurts, because I absolutely adore your channel. You do so much and offer so much knowledge and it definitely isn't un-appreciated by many
i'm bad at poetry but i didn't think to write a whole book to tell y'all
Im sure your poetry is great. Most great artists dont appreciate their own work lol :)

And what’s sad is that I feel like the Sleep poem sounded like it had such potential to explain the relationship between mental illness and oversleeping, either due to depression or as a negative coping strategy.
Gabbie clearly hasn't watched this video. I went in expecting a fun video where I would laugh at the stupid things in that book and came out with a renewed interest in poetry and all of its nuances. You were weren't rude, weren't even blunt, you were very constructive and educated. Clearly Gabbie has only seen the title of this video, which is so brash because, well, clickbait. Its kind of necessary to reel people in. But you get way more than you're actually expecting.
Which could mean she's doing it for clout without giving an ounce of care to whoever she wants to take down with her. Malicious and toxic behavior as hell

I remember her releasing this and being like, “I’m like 16, Gabbie is like 26....ma’am you are an adult.”
big yikes, does she think she's a teen?
Your thoughts and feelings are valid, she’s a public figure and can have content made about her- yes, even criticizing and making jokes. She does this all the time every few months to a stir the pot to smaller content creators, don’t let her bully you. She wants to be everything- singer- you tuber- poetry writer- neurodivergent (?) - abused- rocker- sings ballads- has all the hot word diagnoses- has been through everything traumatic- EVERYTHING. Gabbie has or does everything according to her...
Gabbie has to realize everyone won’t like her, or all her content, and that everything isn’t for everyone.

This is the only poem I've ever written. It's about how bad I am at poetry. I still think it's better than anything in this book:
Sitting Through a Discussion about Poetry
I am tone-deaf to poetry,
no matter what I do.
It's just a jumble of words
with line breaks in inconvenient
places.
If you play Beethoven for someone
and they can't sing
they won't gain perfect pitch.
Some people will never know
what's good wine
and what isn't.
And some will always look at
Jackson Pollack and see
a fly
squashed on a windshield.
I don't see meaning,
or reason.
I see words, from someone
who uses the "enter" key
a little too much.
So yes, I am poem-deaf,
so much so that I don't know
if this even counts as a poem.
Not a professional myself, but I enjoyed this actually! It was fun to read, the rhyming is decent, and I like the part with Beethoven. Thanks for sharing!
I loved it!
This is so fun! I really like this poem. Keep up the good work!
Wow, I didn’t realize how bad her poetry was until now lol as someone who also struggles with self harm, the “cut” poem does feel very insensitive and demeaning in a way, but something that I find interesting is that Gabbie has talked about it being very hard for her to cut her hair, since she’s used it almost as a security blanket her whole life or as a thing to hide behind. So perhaps she’s trying to draw a parallel between the pain of cutting her hair and the trauma of self harm? Which i think is uhhh,,, sorta yikess
TheRenFiles Yo, as the one who cut myself in past AND cut hair, it’s not that painful? I do value my hair a lot, it’s very fluffy and curls more and more each day, but when I cut my braids, the only pain I felt is a pain from hair piercing my eyes. She’s just overdramatizes everything she sees.
*major yikes
TheRenFiles I never self harmed but I do understand the feeling of needing your hair to hide under or use to cope with anxiety or insecurities and I guess I can understand how that could be related to the feelings that fuel self harm (anxiety depression etc) but I think it's pretty insensitive to compare the two like that especially if you've never experienced self harming
I hated that poem so much, even when I enjoyed Gabbie Hanna. I stopped reading the book only a day after getting it because it made me feel...gross. She makes it seem like she's talking about the struggle of self-harm...then switches it to her hair? Like Gabbie, I use my hair as a security blanket, but I wouldn't act like I'm hurting myself or taking my life because I'm cutting it...that's fucked up
that depends. i didnt watch the vid yet, but cutting ur hair can actually b traumatic for some people. ur sole experience is not representative for everyone else. idk if thats the case for gabby but ive seen ppl talk abt trauma related to their hair.
when i clicked the video was expecting more of a “sleep is cheap... yeah well so is your poetry gabby” type video but i feel like i actually learned something... such an educated roast
Delaney Sumlar right. I usually hate to read poetry but this breakdown is convincing me to pick up a good poetry book
me to! stumbled on these videos and am getting alot more from them then i first expected. i feel like im learning interesting things and not just watching youtedrama, lol glad this happened
*EDUCATED ROAST*
Rachel is the QUEEN of educated roasts
‘educated roast’ is the best way to describe this
Hey, I just wanted to say that I am so impressed by how you handled Gabbie recently. It would have been so easy to react in anger to all the horrible things she said but instead you tried to handle things privately over DM and encourage her to take a break to calm down. I just wanted to say that I was really impressed by how maturely you handled everything and that I really respect these videos as well - because they are just valid constructive criticism of her work and actually made me get into poetry. I hope you are doing okay after all the things Gabbie and her fans have been saying and wish you all the best!
