i got myself so worked up over that poem post because i made the mistake of looking into the notes

#i’m sorry but IM A HATER #one specific reply made me so viscerally angry i felt cartoon steam escape my ears #the huff of anger woke up my cats #’the prose was there all along someone just had to polish up the lines’ i want to strangle you. #like. plato’s allegory of the cave was always very silly to me because like #well obviously people wouldn’t think the shadows are more interesting #the whole world is right behind them like you can see both and clearly one is just more poignant and beautiful and engaging #but then i see self proclaimed poets on this website call the most fucking cookie cutter format better #than the perfectly poignant and precious piece of prose poetry RIGHT IN FUCKING FRONT OF THEM #the ONLY good reply was someone who wrote an original haiku inspired by the post #it was a lovely haiku i particularly loved the phrase ‘painted landlord white’ #its a lovely feeling of resignation that contrasts the hopeful nature of the first two lines of the haiku #<- im legally obligated to include one (1) Nice Thing in every hatepost i make now #im instituting this along with my new fav tag #hateposting
