The book of “Sapphic Poetry,” titled Lavender Haze, was released on Oct. 18. Could it be by Taylor Swift?
No, it doesn’t seem so. As far as I can tell, no one brought up that possibility for quite some time. The comments on these TikToks mostly consist of sweet young people being very moved by these poems, writing things like “cant wait to find this person” and “i wanted this with him but he didnt want the same 😭😭😭😭.”I’m no forensic linguist, but no, not really.
They’re heartfelt and plainspoken, like Swift’s lyrics, but they’re very vague, lacking the concrete detail that often distinguishes Swift’s music. Swift, befitting her country roots, is good at finding a central metaphor for a song that provides a framework for the emotions she’s trying to convey. Bates’ poems rarely bother: They’re all about the direct statement, in a way that many readers seem to appreciate, though to me they seem awfully artless.
