News That's Too Serious For MSNBC

A Shot at Substance: Tila Tequila Is The Next Adrienne Rich

07.08.08 by Sascha | 4 Comments | Digg This

Keepin it ClassyAfter getting her heart broken by the devastatingly average Kristy Morgan, Tila can add another title to her resume, right between “Insipid Crinkle-Faced Vessel of Sadness” and “Gay Rights Activist.” She published her own brand of jilted heartbreak poetry on her MySpace page, so now she’s a Queer Poet!

The depth, the mystery revealed in her poem boggles the mind. Much like Hamlet, the reader is left to decide for herself whether Tila Tequila is batshit crazy IRL or just plays one on TV.

Witness the full poem, in all its glory, after the jump.

Thunderfuck my mouth is shut. Been a while, feel like a cunt.
Can’t wait for this drama to pass.
Oh the joy…..fuck you. My ass.
Live a lie.
Tell my mind.
Over soon. I can’t deny.
You will all soon see, the truth in my eyes.

Smile on my face, the loving embrace….but instead I’ll punch you in the face.
For a long time coming….I let you touch me….now that it’s over bitch….You better start running.
Pent up inside….telling these lies….this has gone too far…..the world will soon die.
Only 1 more day. To feel this way. Tomorrow I smile….brings another day!

Back to myself. Nobody else. Fuck all this bullshit. I’m back to myself. Yes. Thank the fuck God.

Would anyone in the class care to comment on the staccato rhythm and the defiant use of ellipses? How about the subtle “truth vs. lies” motif? It’s so bisexual! The foreboding last line even evokes T.S. Elliot’s Wasteland. And the anguished cry for revenge sounds almost Plathian.

It really hearkens back to the subtly lyricism of her first radio single, Fuck Ya Man, which Time magazine accoladed as “the sound track of a million parents’ dreams dying.

Get this girl to an M.F.A. program quick, before she realizes that lesbian creative writing students aren’t photogenic.
