When a poet says “after [name]”, they are acknowledging that their poem was inspired by another poet/poem. It’s a way of giving credit where credit is due while also guarding against someone thinking they ‘stole’ their poem/line/etc from an existing work.
This poem is breathtaking. Brenna Twohy never fails to amaze me.
there's an eye in my tears
Got me at ''One of the first rules of a kitchen, is that you never try catching a falling knife''.
Lord if we aren't a family of good intentions and cut-off hands
Brenna is phenomenal. Her work is always amazing.
That last line will never not give me chills
This is the most beautiful, the most ugly, the most painful thing I've ever listened to.
I love all her poems. What does it mean that she said after Desiree something before she started?
