it was ok

These are
just simple
sentences
broken up
with spaces.

Seriously, some of them I was like, I love this! But I didn't view them as poems. They're more like simple quotes. But I get that this is a kind of poetry and people love it, but to me it's just not anything special.

Charismatic This kind of "poetry" is so simplistic, that today you could easily program a computer to spit it out.

Most folks here are young -- millennials, GenZ -- and so don't remember Rod McKuen, an incredibly popular poet (and song lyricist) of the 60s-70s. He wrote precisely this kind of poetry. It is impossible that Kaur didn't find an ancient McKuen book somewhere and copy from it! really! look it up. McKuen died in 2015, his estate so messed up (he had no kids) that the copyrights are all bungled.
