The Poetry of Reddit: Vol. 1 (Video)

July 11, 2020 By Ben McEvoy

One of my favourite pastimes is being an absolute snob.

I like to scroll through the poetry subreddit, r/Poetry, and lightly shit-talk the criticisms and selections. So why not turn the camera on for that?

The Poetry of Reddit: Vol. 1

This tentative first episode contains poems by:

  • Bukowski
  • Shakespeare
  • D. H. Lawrence
  • Mako Iwamatsu

We’ll also answer one redditor’s question:

  • How can I get more into poetry?

Enjoy, and if you’d like to see more, let me know and I’ll do volume two.
