OMFG: This Girl-Version of “Howl” by Amy Newman

Via the Poetry Foundation website:

“I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by wedding 
planners,
  dieting, in shapewear,
dragging themselves in cute outfits through the freezer section for the
  semifreddo bender,
blessed innovative cloister girl pin-ups burning to know the rabbi of
  electricity in poverty, obedience, in the dream stick of opium and the
  green Wi-Fi fuse,”

Read the whole poem here and in the latest issue of Poetry magazine.
