[@pleaseenteryournamehere9593]

Katrina Caluza is this a girl issue? Im confused

[@denaetomaszewski3341]

@@pleaseenteryournamehere9593 It is actually pretty common to use metaphors when talking about women. The most common one I have seen is calling a woman an "angel" or a "princess". While the intent is usually to bring up a woman, make her feel treasured and loved, it can often time lead to a sense of unworthiness. Being an angel means being blameless and pure, and we are just as capable of making mistakes as men. Being a princess implies being proper, and beautiful, and polite and many of us fall short of that standard. When it seems like the people around you see you like this amazing, surreal being of beauty, it can make you feel like a fraud. Like you don't live up. When she says "you are not made of metaphors", she is saying that the metaphors people use for you do not define you. You can be messy. You can be imperfect. You are so much more than an "angel" or a "princess". You are real, skin and bones, hair and sweat.

Proof that you can deliver a truly moving and beautiful slam poem without screaming at the top of your lungs. It's almost more poignant and powerful being quiet and humble as it is.

[@JEEVY193]

Hey guys I've been writing for a couple of years as a hobby and I'm just starting to upload my stuff to a poetry blog. It's very amateur stuff at the moment but hopefully with a few pointers and some feedback I can get better. I would love all feedback positive and negative. If you'd like to check it out here's the link pandorapoetry.blogspot.com.au/. Thanks :)

[@myishenhaines1706]

JEEVY193 Poetry is about self expression; you are not one to police people's emotions. If someone wants to shout it is no less powerful or wrong then when someone speaks quietly.

[@JEEVY193]

Myishen Haines Oh of course, I'm not saying people shouldn't shout at all, sometimes the nature of the piece demands it. I'm just saying I appreciate the peacefulness of this particular one.

[@KhushbooSinghQueenOfHearts]

"You are a women. Skin and bones. Veins and nerves. Hair and sweat. You are not made of metaphors."

[@elainedenuevo2011]

I like this poem very much but this line - it sounds good but what does it mean? Of course a woman's body is not made of metaphors. But that body has always been the stuff of metaphors and metaphors have always been the stuff of poetry.

[@kimberleynash7500]

@@elainedenuevo2011 What I interpret this to mean is that you shouldn't just fall for the sweet talk and the poetry, 'You are not made of metaphors' is like saying you are more than what they say you are. Being a woman is more than what they think. But that's just my interpretation and if you don't enjoy that line it's fine :) Hope this helped in some way?

[@jasminreyes1278]

​@@elainedenuevo2011 I take it to mean that women are made of more than just the sweet fluff that everyone tells them they are. It seems like she is calling women to appreciate every part of themselves from the most beautiful to the most grity parts and realize the idea that women are just sweet and soft and beautiful is not the real them. It sounded like she was calling women to take an honest look at themselves and the fake ideals others put on them and realize that those ideals aren't real. At least that was my take and I personally love the imagery.

[@BeckyTheBullet]

@@jasminreyes1278 yes! I think you described it beautifully :)

[@darylbuchanan4140]

[@PlayitAgain16]

I like how I don't understand every line, and yet still leave feeling stunned by the message.

[@AmirKhadar]

Comparing love to an ocean is the best way I could ever describe it. It is salty and it burns, but it is beautiful. When you are in the ocean if you stay still and don't fight the current you float, but if you rush you go under, your eyes sting, and you step out of the water. *snapping*

[@krunkykrewsters]

You should write and post your creations! beautiful words...

[@Aga396]

Daniel Hobgen I kinda agree, but I have a feeling that 'salty' rather refers to sweat and 'gasping' to heavy breathing after an orgasm. I think the deeper meaning is sexual, but in a meaning of women discovering herself sexually. Plus the only place (or at least the only one I've seen doing it) in which ejaculating on her face can be called 'ceremonially finishing sex' is porn. It doesn't fit in the picture in my opinion

[@bankofbowbeelow5460]

+Aga396 I don't think that if the deeper meaning of the poem was sexual that she would preform it in schools.

[@sutlive22]

Aga396, I didn't interpret this poem as sexual or as being explicitly about sexual metaphors. I do not believe that that is Sarah Kay's style based on the poems she has performed. Everyone can have their own opinion and interpretation though, that is one of the things that makes the world go around. Regards, Sam Sutlive.

[@amacpherson4727]

Sometimes you can love and be loved, and sex is secondary to human connection.

Women deserve to realise that we aren't only a body that has to be looked at and not the only thing a person can explore is our bodies. Explore our mind, our facial features, our personality traits. A compliment on a rare quality is more special than a comment on how our body looks in a dress that we are wearing.

[@heyitshaffy]

lolipopscandy62 Metaphors are things compared to other things. So I think it's saying that you shouldn't be compared to other people. :)

[@Ekaekto]

Also to me it means, you are not a concept, or an idea. You are not a poem, or a stylistic device to be used by the men in your life to provide them with depth or meaning. You are a human being, you are a woman.

[@fluorescentadolescent2189]

yes I agree with your interpretation much more

[@simranm9483]

My interpretation for the mirror part is that they are not your reflection, you are not them - they are who they are and you are who you are. Do not see yourself in them. They may be familiar but they are not the same. The windows part got me into two moods. One, using them to reach out somewhere else, someplace better, someone better. Two, they are like an escape when all the doors are locked, going through them and seeing the light, finding a way, gasping for fresh air after suffocating in a closed house (as in a way out of depression). Would love more input!

[@sbngl]

Your interpretation gets to me so much. "Do not see yourself in them". Thats what I would always do, until I couldn't separate myself from them :(

[@mihoai5513]

The way I understand is taken from "Eyes are windows to the soul", they - the eyes of men - are thought to reflect their lust, but this may not be true, as men may look to adore a beauty, and that only.

If you grow up the type of woman men want to look at, You can let them look at you. But do not mistake eyes for hands or windows or mirrors. Let them see what a woman looks like. They may have not ever seen one before. If you grow up the type of woman men want to touch, You can let them touch you. Sometimes, it is not you they are reaching for. Sometimes it is a bottle, a door, a sandwich, a Pulitzer - another woman. But their hands found you first. Do not mistake yourself for a guardian or a muse or a promise or a victim or a snack. You are a woman - skin and bones, veins and nerves, hair and sweat. You are not made out of metaphors, not apologies, not excuses. If you grow up the type of woman men want to hold, You can let them hold you. All day they practice keeping their bodies upright. Even after all this evolving it still feels unnatural. Still strains the muscles, hold firms the arms and spine. Only some men will want to learn what it feels like to curl themselves into a question mark around you, Admit they do not have the answers they thought they would by now. Some men will want to hold you like the answer. You are not the answer. You are not the problem. You are not the poem or the punch-line or the riddle or the joke. Woman, if you grow up the type men want to love, You can let them love you. Being loved is not the same thing as loving. When you fall in love, it is discovering the ocean after years of puddle jumping. It is realizing you have hands. It is reaching for the tightrope when the crowds have all gone home. Do not spend time wondering if you are the type of women men will hurt. If he leaves you with a car alarm heart, you learn to sing along. It is hard to stop loving the ocean even after it has left you gasping - "salty." So forgive yourself for the decisions you've made. The ones you still call mistakes when you tuck them in at night and know this: Know you are the type of woman who is searching for a place to call yours. Let the statues crumble. You have always been the place. You are a woman who can build it yourself. You are born to build.

[@VioletLaStrange1]

I love the image created when she says, "Only some men will want to know what it feels like to curl themselves into a question mark around you." I love how not only does it go along with the idea of men evolving and how hard it still feels to stand up straight, but also how it plays along with the line saying how they want to hold you like the answer. The whole poem was just full of beautiful structured lines. Just wow; I loved it.
