The way she said "sorry sorry sorry" felt like she took the words out of every girl's mouth. Everyone knew that line already. And she knew they would.. It gave me chills. I heard myself saying it as she said it.
Can I like this a thousand times? Not only the words are amazing, but the way she performs! I am in love. So much energy, so much feeling, so much talent.

The best poetry slam ever, perfect performance and it's sooooooooo creative, so an easy way to show sooo deep stuff. And I mean by easy the way she uses the picture of a bird to say things through it. I really love it!!! Greetings from Germany ❤
I watched this on repeat. Simply could not accept going back into the world without fully absorbing what she had to say. Insanely beautiful poem, insanely talented performance, insanely relevant topic. Thank you from a pretty bird.
This is one of the most beautiful and intricate poems I've ever listened to. I've listened to it soooo many times I have a lot of it memorized and I'm absolutely in love with it. OBSESSED!! 💛
Did button poetry ever said whether they will ever post the poems in their descriptions? It can sometimes be hard to follow as someone who doesn't speak english that well
I'm in the same position, I tried searching for the 'lyrics' but I can't seem to find them, and the automatic captions aren't right.

This is so unique and powerful. It's one of those poems that truly inspires me to keep writing poetry. Does anyone know of any good places to perform/watch slam poetry in Ohio?
I haven't been able to stop thinking about this one since I watched it a few days ago... Genius! Wonderfully done! Beautiful and eerie at the same time, gave me chills!

yes
"my vanity's insanity unless it helps get you off"
I loved that line!
"pretty sure i know what i'm talking about… pretty sure, maybe not, sorry sorry sorry sorry"
"I have a better half- I am a half." Blew me away. Her presentation is fearless and flawless
The way she preformed that was perfect
"my vanity is insanity unless it helps get you off"
Agh this poem is amazing
This is incredible. I love the cadence she slips in and out of, and the character she creates so quickly.
the staccato rhythm beautifully highlights the disjointed thoughts and ideas warring with each other in the poem. its absolutely gorgeous. love it
Yes. I love this style, with the whole disjointed thoughts thing.
This is literally the only time I have ever cried while listening to a poem
Can I like this a thousand times?
Not only the words are amazing, but the way she performs! I am in love. So much energy, so much feeling, so much talent.
Ok I had to watch this about 7 times to understand it fully and now I'm crying.
Every once in a while I just crave this video, and I watch it again and I'm amazed at the talent. It gives me chills every time.
"My left side is my best side. I have a best side. I have a better half. I am a half."
This is the most original slam poem I've ever heard. Incredible rhythm and incredible meaning
I've lived 20 preI've lived 20 prettybird years
Of this great big prettybird life
And i think i pretty pretty pretty bird bird pretty much know what im talking about
People like to poke fun at my pretty bird pretty preening
At my pretty pretty bird pretty feathers
But look at my long clean coat
At my pretty pretty bird pretty pink legs
When pigeon men track me cross sky highway
tHey are happy to trace hungry orange eyes
between my pretty pretty bird bird feathers
To busy fantasizing pretty bird
Wet dreams swollen chest fluff fest
To pretty poke bird fun
To pretty poke fun bird
To pretty bird bird pretty bird bird pretty pretty pretty
Too busy fantasizing
to poke fun at permanently preening pretty bird
My vanity is insanity unless it helps get you off
What a treat hosting eyes between my thighs
They will spend equal time begging to share bed with me
Condemning mediocrity
How does one achieve complexity when all she was ever taught to be was basic
Pigeon man wants pretty bird to pretty bird
Until pretty bird fulfills ideas of prettiness
Then shes too pretty pretty bird bird paralyzing and preened
Look at my long clean coat
At my pretty pretty bid pretty pink legs
Track me cross sky highway
Take a picture I beg you
Take a picture pretty bird pretty bird
My left side is my best side
I have a best side
I have a better half
I am a half
Pretty cus they want a pretty bird bird
I grew up on a diet of bread crumbs catalog clippings and sidewalk cracks
How do you expect anything else
Pretty sure i know what im talking about
Pretty sure
pretty sure
Maybe not
Sorry sorry sorry sorry
Can i ask a question
Sorry sorrry
May i may i
Pretty bird used to sing
Baby bird used to sing
Baby bird was pretty bird before pretty bird learned to pretty
And baby bird could compose whole symphonies
Acute intricacies melodies capturing vacies poetry
But the reviews came in
and they prefered apology
So she shrank
learned to make herself small enough
to nearly fit back in her eggshell
to tip toe atop eggshells
expanded flight just long enough
for pigeon men to track her cross sky highway
but still she sang too loud
so they caged her up
for her pretty pretty bird bird long clean coat
for her pretty pretty bird pretty pink legs
and they said sing pretty lady sing
but I forgot how
so I said
pretty pretty bird bird look at my long clean coat
at my pretty pretty bird pretty pink legs
but they were bored of me
thanks
vast seas of poetry*
❤
"My vanity's insanity unless it helps get you off" ...Wow
I have a best side, I have a best half, I am a half - yas girl
that was my favorite line too!! so amazing ugh
The best poetry slam ever, perfect performance and it's sooooooooo creative, so an easy way to show sooo deep stuff. And I mean by easy the way she uses the picture of a bird to say things through it.
I really love it!!!
Greetings from Germany ❤
I watched this on repeat. Simply could not accept going back into the world without fully absorbing what she had to say. Insanely beautiful poem, insanely talented performance, insanely relevant topic. Thank you from a pretty bird.
Instantly started crying as she said the last line
This is one of the most beautiful and intricate poems I've ever listened to. I've listened to it soooo many times I have a lot of it memorized and I'm absolutely in love with it. OBSESSED!! 💛
I've been slapped in the face by this performance and that's what I love about it
this lives rent free in my head
Did button poetry ever said whether they will ever post the poems in their descriptions? It can sometimes be hard to follow as someone who doesn't speak english that well
They do have the caption option
I'm in the same position, I tried searching for the 'lyrics' but I can't seem to find them, and the automatic captions aren't right. I tried making a transcript but couldn't quite catch a few words, hopefully someone else can correct those:

Prettybird used to sing
Babybird used to sing
Babybird was Prettybird before Prettybird learned to pretty
and Babybird could compose whole symphonies of cute intricacies
melodies capturing vast seas of poetry
but the reviews came in
and they preferred apology
so she shrank
learned to make herself small enough
to nearly fit back in her eggshell
to tiptoe on top eggshells
expand in flight just long enough
for pigeon-men to track her
accross sky-highway
but still, she sang too loud
so they caged her up
for her pretty pretty bird bird
long clean coat
for her pretty pretty bird
pretty pink legs
and they said 'sing, pretty lady, sing!'
but I forgot how
so I said
pretty pretty bird bird
look at my long clean coat
at my pretty pretty bird
pretty pink legs
but they were bored of me
Emily Poupart
yeah but the captions were wrong last time i checked
Veronica
I think you got everything right I think it's paralyzing instead paralyized but besides that everything seems to fit
Everything about this is perfect
This is the poem that got me into poetry😊
I've been coming back to this video at least once a month for like a year now, it still hits just as hard every time
I love this so incredibly much. I've at least watched this 10 times already.
My body will always yearn to hear this poem
This is so unique and powerful. It's one of those poems that truly inspires me to keep writing poetry. Does anyone know of any good places to perform/watch slam poetry in Ohio?

I am literally speechless
INSANE TALENT!
I thought she was singing in the beginning, and I suppose that's ironic. Maybe she meant for it to sound like that. Probably.
love it so much
i cried
Almost forgot to watch this today
Beautiful
Damn. That was beautiful execution!!!
That was unreal
