2nd poetry book "Behind the Iron Gates - Insights from an Institution" with Simon & Schuster - OUT MARCH 2021 [POSTPONED]

Recommended Posts

I really feel like the Interview Mag video from today could also double as a trailer for this poetry book, especially if she’s going to chronicle her fragility in this book like she said in May. I’m so excited for this and how it’s going to connect to Question for the Culture and COTCC!

i think iron gates is going to be pretty dark, disturbing and depressing poetry, violets was quite bittersweet and light, its very optimistic and hopeful, i think iron gates is going to feel cold and harsh, and bitter, thats the kind of imagery i get from the title, i think we're going to get a lot of poems about her experience in this "institution" and possibly some really dark thoughts she has had, and never shared before

Behind Iron Gates already sounds more menacing and dark than Violet. Just like Chemtrails sounds more menacing and dark than Norman. 
 

Tbh, looking at it thru the lens of Lana’s life and experiences, how she is right now reminds me a lot of 2014/Ultraviolence era Lana. Coming off a public breakup, admittedly depressed and anxious, getting trashed in the media...

 

I obviously don’t want her to go backwards, but idk, it’s just something I noticed

I think expressing yourself through art is a great healing method, so if she's in a state similar to those years, I'm sure this album and the poetry can really help her getting things off her chest.

It’s so true what everyone is saying about Behind the Iron Gates. I feel like the Interview Mag video could’ve been a trailer for both Chemtrails and Behind the Iron Gates, as I think she’s really tying together the themes of isolation (by literally being behind iron gates but also feeling like an outsider in regards to the culture, both of which I think will see Lana discuss being a prisoner of her own thoughts derived from her experiences, but how that’s almost empowering) and there will be such a synergy between Chemtrails and Behind the Iron Gates - even more than Norman and Violet! I think both projects will influence the way the other should be interpreted or listened to and it’s really cool to see her putting out projects in multiple formats that are all connected! I hope she continues putting out records and poetry collections that are symbiotic so that we can be further blessed with her insight!!

This is EVERYTHING I imagined and so much more :wowcry: this is exactly the vibe I got from the b&w sea cliff stairs video she posted for Patent Leather Do-Over, as well as the actual imagery in the poem. Fantastic work! :wub:

I wonder in this book she’s going to detail some of her thoughts and experiences that happened to her at the boarding school she went to. Also her past alcoholism.
