apparently she’s enjoying pissing u off

Honestly this

LMAO called it
The way she's wearing a mask to read a POEM in her car that's so passive-aggressive I LOVE it
(I was sooooo afraid to watch this, I thought it was gonna be QftC 2.0)

What was it she said In the bridge of  Brooklyn Baby again...? 
 

You know you that bitch when you cause all this conversation! ?

Part of the reason why I enjoy watching Lana as a person is because she doesn’t conform to industry expectations and ideals and is firm in her own beliefs. It would be really boring for me if she had a social media team and all of her posts were run of the mill. I know that it’s disappointing when she doesn't stick to her word when it comes to release dates etc but at the end of the day I don’t want an album that isn’t done from her or any other artist.  A lot of artists don’t even let you in on the fact that they’re preparing an album.  I think she knows exactly what she’s doing announcing her album titles so early keeping a constant anticipation from listeners who really enjoy her.  She doesn’t actually owe her fans anything, we are all here by choice and it’s depressing seeing people get upset over a popular artist not releasing an album quick enough for them.  
 
If she is tested negative as Chuck said and is showing up wearing a mask she thinks is beautiful then it’s really her prerogative and only putting herself at risk, she is entitled to do so whether it’s a bad look or not.  I think she has made it abundantly clear over the years that when it comes to people having a say on what she does or says- she doesn’t care in the slightest.  She is living for herself.  At times her communication isn’t constructed with any tact but anyone with the brain capacity to extend their thoughts a bit further than the surface can read between the lines and understand what she’s getting at.

"she tested negative and she's more than 6 feet away" LOL END THEM CHUCK 

Bare Feet On Linoleum is my favourite by far, it’s so dark 

Bare Feet On Linoleum is my favourite by far, it’s so dark 

This is an amazing visual I’m actually terrified 

Bare Feet On Linoleum is my favourite by far, it’s so dark 

If your interpretation holds any truth then this must be why I resonate with the poem so much having a bit of a poor relationship with my own mother, I didn’t even know how to interpret what she was saying I just understood her tone and the hesitation on some of the lines, enjoying how bleak and how the audio poem sounds like it’s coming to a boil by the end like she’s about to get pushed over the edge and commit the treason she spoke about.  thanks for posting that 

This one is so visual to me, like a scene in a horror movie or mind thriller.
I visualise her sitting in a chair in large, cream-coloured, empty room with one glass wall she's facing that we're looking through while she's reading the poem out of her book. Then behind her are these faceless silhouettes, almost like robots but more human-like (slenderman-esque?), that stand behind her reciting the lines heard in the background. Then at the point of the poem where she says "& now, I’m left wondering, where do I go from here?" she looks up towards the glass but her eyes glossed over as if she's what she's looking towards is just one-way, mirrored glass & the figures begin to walk towards her, until at the end when the poem stops they are surrounding her - some playing with her hair, smoothing her dress, adjusting her ankles - and she closes her eyes, leans her head back, and begins to recite back the words they had been saying to her - "people love my stories."
 
(I feel sort of ridiculous posting this strange visualisation, but it's just what I see!) x

There is some interesting audio samples that play throughout, and are most present at the start and the end, a couple of men and women overlapping with these kinda things:
"I have plenty of witty anecdotes" "Your stories are mesmerising"  "I always have the most interesting stories" "I am an interesting person" "People love your stories" "You are a fantastic person" "You have plenty of interesting stories "You are an interesting performer" There are lots of variants - it almost sounds like they're practising Meisner? It gives the work a sort of terrifying dimension - the coolest part is at the end Lana starts to slowly speak along with them, like she's hypnotised. 

I've updated the OP with the spoken word version of the poem, transcribed by @@takeitdoen who is able to listen to it in Australia.
 
It's interesting to note she changed around the poem a bit, especially with excluding certain words with the place of long pauses. I've left both versions in the OP x

Alright, so this poem also seems to be about her mother...? At least thats how I am interpreting now after her Mother's Day post and considering the content of LA Who Am I To Love You:
 
"Secrets about [...] mother"
So Lana is alluding to something noone knows about her mum
 
Then, "all of the people you meet on the street will reiterate lies that she uttered", meaning her mum might have told others something Lana considers untrue.
 
Lana is experiencing nightmares, waking up "late at night", with "tiny beads of sweat dot[ting her] forehead", after dreaming of escaping to the island of Catalina
 
"But alas, this is a real life - and it's been a real fight just to keep my mind from committing treason"
You can only commit treason to someone who trusts you, so it must be someone close to Lana - and again, it is a woman, because in the next paragraph, she says "She told the townspeople i was crazy"
Lana grew up in the small town of Lake Placid, and I interpret this as Patty telling everyone lies to hide Lana's alcoholism which lead to her going to boarding school?
Now, the "treason" might be to just spill everything about their relationship. Lana has said in the past she can't talk about some stuff as long as some people are still alive.
 
"i've gone scorched earth" aka Lana's life has been hell
"Would standing in front of Mt Rushmore feel like the great American homecoming I've never had?" 
Could this mean Lana's mum has never been proud of her, or her achievements?
 
And then, "Would the magnitude [...] take the place of the warm embrace I've never known?"
So it seems Lana is not coming from a very loving family.
 
The poem then ends with Lana preparing dinner, giving us insight in what's going through her head when she is alone.
