In this book, Rupi reminds us that life can be difficult at times, but if we focus on the positive and practice self-love, then we can get through anything. They have found that her words are powerful and inspiring, helping them to cope with difficult times in their own lives. For instance, everyone who lost a life for a cause deserves to be remembered, this is why Rupi dedicates a poem to the 1984 massacre of Sikhs: It was interesting to read her take on a trans-inclusive feminism. As she is often so fixated on her womb and the "female energy" that comes out of it, I have thought many times that she excludes trans women by doing so. Maybe if she had written more than 3 words regarding this topic, her views would have been more clear to me.

The writing process begins with her starting on paper and then transferring the "most promising" material to an extended Microsoft Word document. [51] Oftentimes after this process culminates, she attaches a compelling image along with her poems to complement the verses. [76] Lastly, it concludes after she has narrowed the poem to its main elements and she has received affirmation from her sister. [38] Her printed poems are often excerpts from longer spoken-word work, publishing "the part that really made my stomach turn". [23] Due to treating writing as a "form of healing", she doesn't consider the audience, solely valuing her response and engagement. [33] Across all her projects, she maintains "full creative control", contributing towards aspects such as the cover and minutiae of her books. [68] Kaur has said that she approaches her poetry like running a business and writes "to perform it", seeing the stage as where her ambitions are fully achieved. [77] [78] Within the context of performance, her use of line breaks and periods represent where she would pause and where a new idea would be introduced, respectively.

Home Body is Rupi Kaur’s third work, following her widely-acclaimed and hugely-popular first and second poetry books, Milk and Honey and The Sun and Her Flowers. The Instafamous poet has been the recipient of commendation and criticism in equal measure. Where the book does more with less, it is best. The short poem, “i’m surprised I got out at all” envisions in three lines a relationship so small and entrapping, the hostage can’t “see the exit.” The claustrophobia of the relationship is echoed in the claustrophobic brevity of the poem. Brava. Like I’ve said about Kaur’s other work, I wish she’d edited herself; I wish she’d separate the wheat from the chaff. Here she does it.
