Kanye West posts new “Dead” poem, after divorce from Kim Kardashian

Kanye West posts “Dead” poem on Instagram

Last week, Kanye West and Kim Kardashian were both finally each ruled single, as their divorce came to an end. That came after Kim initially filed the paperwork, in February 2021. Last month, Kanye had been trying to win Kim back, as she is still dating Pete Davidson. Ye even sent her a truck full of roses, on Valentine’s Day.

Last week, Kanye posted a poem to his Instagram feed, about how bad divorce is. He compared it to other types of pain, such as “full blown COVID,” and injuring an ankle on the first play of the Super Bowl. Now, Ye returns with another poem, titled “Dead.”

“No one wanted to tell me I was DEAD,” said the poem. “And only people that would talk to me were in my head. No one wanted to tell me I was DEAD. Only people who loved me would visit in their dreams instead. They would come to my grave and sprinkle some bread. So on my tombstone the birds would be fed. I would give new requests but nothing was said. Cause no one wanted to tell me, that I was DEAD.”

Ye’s caption also explained how he feels compromised that he has to justify his expression, after over “20 years of art” that he’s contributed to the planet. Ye also noted how men and celebrities in general aren’t allowed to cry, according to the public.
