Holy topic change batman
How did we even get here
#reading a poem from class and am just in shock at a change of topic here and the language used
#like i dont have cultural knowledge/connection/whatever of the word used so it itself isnt like sensitive for me in any way nd i dont know
#how much it is that in spanish (bc im reading the poem in soanish and translating the words i dont know into english to understand better)
#but the FREAKING TOPIC CHANGE here has left me so shocked
#like im sorry but how do we go from talking abt how this homie is like the special voice of the city and connection to nature in an
#industial world only to then go (direct translation) “and the faggots
#they dreamed of you“ like bro WHEN DID THEY GET HERE
#anyways i picked this poem bc it was a little queer from the skim i did i can admit that but obviously i missed the bulk of it because i did
#not see that line coming at all or the total topic change here
#like again i picked up it was a little gay on the skim bc its by a gay poet abt a gay poet. and bro is described using words like beautiful
#handsome etc. a few times
#but looking through and skimming the rest is just them talking about gay ppl the whole time. how did i miss this. like yeah this was
#likely written in the 1920s uses older language (not to mention in my 2nd language) but wow okay
#going thru and translating and that just hit me by surprise horribly
#I THOUGHT WE WERE TALKING ABT INDUSTRY AND NATURE
#okay i think ive recovered from the shock there i need to finish actually 7nderstanding this so i can write the paper i put off so ling
#also 10 points and like a shitty doodle of choice if anyone knows the poem here.
#i have an awful track record of following through on these promises but like interested to see if its semi obvious
