I’m not too fond of poems. AT ALL. But, if I were forced to read one, I would choose one of Rupi Kaur’s. Her poems are short, easy to comprehend, and are accompanied by a line drawing. She is also a young woman of color, so gotta show support!

I chose the poem about how Rupi is like water; she can give life and take it away. The dark part of my mind focused on the idea of drowning something, and an idea struck.
