I'm inclined to agree but it also sounds very much like something she'd write. Especially the title and the shit about orange peels. So idk.

Honestly who knows. Her poetry hasn't been up to par with her songwriting, as we've already seen. Could go 50/50 imo

 

(As an aside i definitely sang "orange peels curling in the sun" to the tune of Old Money in my head lmfao)

If by not 'up to par' you mean distilling the worst elements that only kind of work in songs, sure. I could put a dictionary audiobook on shuffle and put it to an instrumental of old money and some of y'all would still be saying it's 50/50 lmfao.

Lana shared this piece of writing on her Instagram, perhaps a part of her poetry book - 

"May You Resist Being colonized utterly by those who do not have your soul's interest at heart.

May you practice humor in order to bypass invitations to doom. Practice exiting quickly. Leave only your laughter in the air behind you when you've been invited to fulfill someone else's fantasy that's not you."

So the proceeds of the audio version are going to a Native group, is that right....

Is that even poetry, though? It looks more like a rather unhinged rant.

How dare you colonise her by not having the best interests of her soul at heart

lol i’d bet $20 you posted it wanting it to be Lana’s poetry, knowing full well it’s your own :clown:

Me and 13bitches have settled our differences since then. Please don't dig this up again.

That $20 could really come in handy tbh; that wasn’t me. If you’re interested in my writing though you should check out my Bandcamp!
