Product Information

What happens when people decide, for real or semi-jokingly, that you are actually Taylor Swift writing under a pseudonym?

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. We can't be all too surprised, as everyone and their mother knows Swift is known for her easter eggs. Another thing that made me smile while reading the book was how safe she felt in her partner's arms, and how calm she was in those moments with her, no bad thoughts, no intrusive thoughts, just her and her partner in bed nothing else in the world matters according to her.I loved the way she was manifesting and validating my emotions and feelings even though she wasn't there directly.

I read and rated the book, “She is the poem” by Julia Bates and I gave it five stars because the moment I had the book in my hands I finished it. There’s another novel that just came out, so I’ll have to read that one so I can get a better judge of character.

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 know it has links to Taylor and I love her, and can definitely see correlations between some phrases and her songs, even mentions of her cats.even though everyone lives different lives, poetry can pull us together with our experiences and connect us. this is by far one of the best poetry books about love (specially sapphic love) that i have ever read.

On that tracklist was a song titled, you guessed it, "Lavender Haze" and this is where the theory originates.
