Poetry Recommendation: Blythe Baird “Give Me A God I Can Relate To”

“You threatened me not to write this, but I am a force of nature and you will never tell me what to do again”

“Give Me a God I Can Relate To” Is slam poet Blythe Baird’s debut collection.

The collection is largely a critique of society that examines the world through the lens of intersectional feminism that delves into rape culture and misogyny, as well as eating disorders, family relationships, and being part of the lgbtq community.

This collection is beautiful in the way a forest fire is beautiful. The language isn’t overly flowery, but each poem is written with blunt and powerful honesty that forces you to face what she is saying, even if it “isn’t something we like to discuss”. Each line grabs you by the shoulders and looks you straight in the eye, and there’s no way not to listen. The honesty of the collection is also what makes it so relatable, even if you’ve never been where she’s been or if you turn a blind eye at the things she’s writing about, you’ve seen it and heard it and there is no way to erase that from who you are.

Even though this is a collection of page poems they read like spoken word, which can be attributed to her history as a slam poet. Her honesty and passion carries throughout the collection, thus giving it one of the strongest voices I’ve ever encountered in a collection of poetry. Each line is laced with emotion and power, the kind that doesn’t care what you think because she’s calling it like she sees it, and it’s magnificent.

Overall, Blythe has managed to beautifully capture what it’s like to be a girl growing up today as well as deliver critiques on the very bedrock of society, all while giving advice and offering insights that are wise beyond her years. Whether you’re interested in feminism, on the hunt for a book that will make you think, or simply enjoy poetry this collection is for you.

I write because this is my escape. I write stories with tragedies in them because these are the emotions that I bottled up inside me, these are the emotions that I couldn't let anyone see, these emotions are what made me discover my escape, these emotions are what made me stronger to continue writing my story.

No, I'm not Bisexual but I don't see anything wrong with loving someone whose the same gender as you, I don't see anything wrong if I were to be in a relationship with a bisexual person. If he happens to like a boy, then be my guest, I won't stop him, all I ask is for him to be loyal, to tell me when he's falling for that boy. I'm an honest and open person. I don't see anything wrong with us human beings loving another human being who shares the same genitals with you or me.

Please be honest

Gone was the sweet messages you send me nor the random texts of how you miss me, it was replaced by nights with my pillows stained with tears. Day by day, your messages get shorter, there were no updates, none. I was lucky enough to talk to you for 10 to 15 minutes before you disappear again. I overthink more than ever, you were starting to disappear when I need reassurance that you would be there for me, that you still love me. I don't know where we're going now. I wait for you, to go on, to chat me or text. There was none, I was starting to be the first one who initiates any conversation, would you have talked to me if I haven't pmed you? I only ask for you is to be honest, tell me when I'm being too much, tell me when I've being to hard on you, tell me when you've fallen in love with another girl. Please don't lead me on. Tell me when you're not in love with me anymore.

TO THE GIRL WHO LOVED ME

Maybe the reason why she kept asking if I loved her was because of me. I’ve stopped showing her off—I no longer post her pictures, write status about her, or tag her with silly memes. I no longer reply to her comments of sweet nothings and she just deletes them when I ignore them. For me these were stupid stuff but these little things made her happy before.

I stopped kissing her at random moments. I no longer hug her when she’s scared, anxious, or insecure. Hell, I couldn’t even remember the last time I did. I didn’t know how to tell if she’s really okay or not because I stopped asking her if something’s bothering her. I no longer remind her how beautiful she is even if she only wears a big shirt. When was the last time her smile reached her eyes? No, she did smile. She smiled at me even when I hurt her, lied to her, ignored her.

She lost her best friend, her brother, her lover, when I stopped being them. I took myself away from her. And it hurts to know all these without realizing what I’ve done to her.

How could I give my attention to other girls without checking first if she’s okay? How could I text other girls and forget that she’s waiting for my messages? How could I allow myself to admire other girls without realizing I already have the best? I was too busy to see that she’s already drifting and I’m doing nothing to pull her back. And when I think of the idea of losing her, it broke my heart. It damaged me to think of some other guy making my girl happy, doing things we used to do, loving her the way I should.

No, I couldn’t lose the girl who stayed with me even after I broke her and cried herself to sleep. I couldn’t lose the one who only ever understood me, the only one who didn’t only tame my demons, but also danced with them. I couldn’t lose the girl who loved me when I didn’t love her enough. I couldn’t lose my best friend, my love, my world. She’s all things I need and I’m so stupid to only realize it now.

I’m sorry, my love. I love you. And I’d do anything in my power to keep you.
