On Hating Rupi Kaur
First published in Barnstorm This is how we start our Intro to Poetry course: I cancel class and schedule individual conferences with the students. We talk about life, and passions, and how they would describe themselves if they couldn’t mention their family or where they’re from. Eventually, there’s a little lull in conversation that pushes us towards a new question, “What poetry have you read?”. Many students look away and mumble something about Dr. Suess or Shel Silverstein, some laugh, but most of these twenty-somethins’ say that they’ve at least read Rupi Kaur.
