This felt like Pinterest self-help poetry (better than Instagram poetry, but still cringey) and, yuck, i had such high hopes bc of a single good poem I saw on tiktok. Here's a snippet of one of the 'worst' ones, I'm so sorry to the author.. 

So then be basic
like what everyone else likes
enjoy the pumpkin spice lattes

A beautiful collection of words that made me cry many times.
