She does seem confident to me, but as a non native English speaker I got a gloomy vibe from it (maybe it's obvious for others   ). Since they were all blonde women who people mentioned died young, and she said she dyed her hair black for them and also decided to turn her shoes "the other way", "not at the ocean"... as a way of saying she doesn't want to end that way? I don't know, what do you guys understand? 
 
I loved it by the way.

fuck....this either means she goes completely uncensored with everything or gets her shit together and makes her career more professional (if this is true)

Holy shit. Devastating and beautiful. I'm worried and blown away.

She updates the caption on the poem to say “music as always by jack”
 
Also is behind the iron gates insights from an institution meaning the institution is her mind....? Like in hope is a dangerous thing how she says “ A gatekeeper carelessly dropping the keys on my nights off”

I knew what you meant when you talked about swimming in the ocean and leaving your patent leather black shoes pointed towards it while you swam
It tickled you to leave them there
 
there's a poem by Sylvia Plath in the Bell Jar that speaks about suicide and leaving her shoes pointed towards the sea. 
 
you can download the book here https://www.fadedpage.com/showbook.php?pid=20160540
 
 
I can work on some additional analysis 

she really knew how to make us forget about the last two days! bets on if she deletes in within 24 hours?

this thread is giving me NFR pre-release tease...
 
when she posts another rant and we make it to 1k pages of pure chaos

An active queen keeping us close together

this really reminded me of elvis and dance for money 

the way this thread had 392 pages two days ago...

Patent Leather Do-Over
 
Sylvia
I knew what you meant when you talked about swimming in the ocean and leaving your patent leather black shoes pointed towards it while you swam
It tickled you to leave them there
It was the thought of a young child
or of a lost fairy
It reminded me of who I am
That's why I'm now at this facility by the ocean
And why I go barefoot and why I go calmly
Why I leave my shoes up by the stairway
I do it for you and I do it for me
because having learned from others and from you
I learned there was a missing piece to finding existential calmness and and domestic bliss to lead to peace
You see, you cant fall in love with a man like Ted or a musician who sings about being free
A woodworker doesn't a good man make if he wants his work to be on TV
You have to separate the wheat from the chaff
You have to be discerning
It takes diligence, consequence and other things to keep that sea from churning
and to keep yourself from longing to let those painted waves take you under
It isn't just the water black that makes the body plunder
from high sea cliffs
I know, my dear
I wish that I had been here
or there
I wish that you were here now
If you're not now
because who knows how these things work?
Sylvia, Marilyn, Violet, Diana
All of my kind women
Who came before me
Blonde
I dyed my hair black for you
I turned my back in that black pond
I swear I wont stop until I'm dead
and here I am at 34
and what for?
To bring my pair of baby pattern leather shoes to turn them the other way
towards the sea cliff stairs, not at the ocean
To bring them back up safe to the facility instead
and I think of you as I walk to the 280 wooden steps dynamited into the cliffs 100 years before
I let myself into room 2 and got undressed
I was sunburnt
Contemplative and sore
and as I fell asleep
by Gabapentin
I lay my head on the pillow
and stretched my hand out on the cool white linen
and sang you a lemon melody
I kept the shoes on the sill by the window seat
in case you got restless and wanted to leave
and I hugged you with my baby's breath
and sang your spirit to bed
the way I would have if you were my child
or if I had children
My Queen Anne's lace heart weightless on your little head


 

What Where?
And I love the poem but why is she sharing stuff from behind the iron gates when violet bent backwards isn't even out yet

It's the best thing she's released so far relating to the poetry, sounded so good and was recited very well. A whole audiobook of the poetry like this would be great :hdu: :hdu:

these quarantine era selfies are really rivaling those from the honeymoon era

"A woodworker doesn't a good man make if he wants his work to be on TV"
 

The poem is so good! And oh that calming music. I've been having a minor anxiety attack for the last couple of days (not related to any of this) and it just calmed me down.

ASMR Del Rey

update: the poem is really pretty, and so is the selfie. I think the whole mess is over with (knock on wood)

Her poetry so far,( from the 2 videos I’ve listened to on IG) is very comforting and peaceful for me. I’m going through alot of intense anxiety atm and its like it stops time and I can relax for a bit :/

i go into cardiac arrest everytime i get that notification lmao
