evalionisameme 13,889 Posted February 1, 2023 I like Marina so I’m not going to do too much but this is some of the oddest poetry I’ve ever seen… I’m shocked because her older works in particular feature great lyricism and rhyming- I don’t know what she was trying to do but it’s going to be panned most likely 14 hours ago, evalionisameme said: her newest critique of oversexualisation is being teased- Marina 3 for the Grammys me thinks… This was ahead of its time 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
evalionisameme 13,889 Posted February 1, 2023 You bought a star in the sky at night And in your man-made dark The light inside you died [Pre-Chorus] Oh, we don't own our heavens now We only own our hell And if you don't know that by now Then you don't know me that well [Verse 1] Sunday, wake up, give me a cigarette Last night's love affair is looking vulnerable in my bed Silk sheet, blue dawn Colgate, tongue warm [Pre-Chorus] Won't you quit your crying? I can't sleep One minute I'm a little sweetheart And next minute you are an absolute creep TF happened 12 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rorman Nockwell 56,711 Posted February 1, 2023 The sea has burnt out and nature has depleted It's come to a point where I no longer need to feel mistreated These stars won't rest for me Exploding now, the earth is super heated If I have one last wish One last dish, for you, a fruit platter with a legendary brew A quadrant of space inhabited by you My abyss don't darken in the depths from you I'm enlightened like Heaven Sour to the core like teardrop lemon Racing to the top it's my absolute obsession My abyss question Devoted Christian When I'm with you it's Armageddon 1 Quote ur legit gonna look the same stop buying oil of Olay face cream Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vrtvie 2,264 Posted February 1, 2023 Writing about your glamorous Hollywood life ain't the thing anyone's gonna relate to, so Marina sis you better take it into consideration, unless you really don't care what you're doing. That new poem is alright, but the structure seems messy and the visuals kinda childish. 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yosemite 23,786 Posted February 1, 2023 Her poem doesn't look THAT bad if she would type it like this tho Spoiler I was the type of girl to swallow the world whole ingest it all I felt too much, needed too much there would never be enough love. Insatiable endless black hole of everythingness starving for everything I didn't need malnourished by placebos of love. Vitamins called success, attention, money, fame pissed out unaware into luxurious japanese toilet bowls nothing could touch the sides of my crippling black star jet black hole of noise no boyfriend, magazine cover, chart sale, sold out tour, million dollar contract could satiate my stomach ache for love I thought if I ate the world I would finally be full I would never be hungry again I was wrong, of course I was this isn't a movie, this is real life a ragged jagged pill of a life a whirl of clothes, cars, photoshoots, planes tears, traumas, studio strains approve, approve, approve try, try, try grind, grind, grind to be heard, seen, valued, understood by men with no knowledge of real womanhood who held my power in their purses owned my chorus and my verses But now I am free of what I had to sever I am free of the hunger lighter than a feather I am free of those men and prolific like heather I ate the whole world and I'll eat it forever Can't say I love it, but this way it's a) way easier to read and understand and b) it makes the poem seem better than it is 11 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

14n4 376 Posted February 1, 2023 i hope she gets to read it out loud for us. intonation and rhythm would definitely help us interpret and understand her piece. if she makes a whole poetry book in that style, i think the audiobook format would be great. i believe marina has a way with words but my comprehension skills can only go so far lmao. i also don't want her to get dragged for her creative choices; so record yourself rina!!!!!! love seeing her shine but sometimes what she puts out can be difficult to grasp. she has the vision tho. love her 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Psychedelic Pussy 30,108 Posted February 1, 2023 i just think it’s so weird how she tried to change her image after Electra Heart- the infinitely iconic look & album that catapulted her to being a star, and then again tried to change it to be more “mature”(?) by dropping “and the Diamonds” from her state name and trying to write “mature” music e.g political, feminist, etc but failed miserably for the most part because the vast amount of her output since Froot has been beyond mediocre imo And now she’s doing a Lana Del Rey and trying to get into poetry ?¿ and it’s just not good i feel so bad dragging her bc I want to love her so much & I really do adore her first 3 albums but like what the fuck yall 16 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spoiler Also I remember hearing an early snippet of "You" that sounded so good and then I was kinda letdown when the song came out and it was a lot more stripped back...I still think sometimes about what that song could've been 9 Quote ♡ 𝓮𝓿𝓮𝓻𝔂𝓽𝓱𝓲𝓷𝓰'𝓼 𝓼𝓽𝓲𝓵𝓵 𝓻𝓸𝓶𝓪𝓷𝓽𝓲𝓬, 𝓻𝓲𝓰𝓱𝓽? ♡ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
