People are praising Amanda Gorman for her history-making performance after she became the youngest-ever poet to read at a presidential inauguration.

On Wednesday, the 22-year-old delivered her original composition, "The Hill We Climb,” a work she finished after the Capitol riots, at the swearing-in of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

According to the first National Youth Poet Laureate, she wanted the poem to be a “message of hope and unity”.

Why? Just Why would anyone give this a 'dislike?' Beggars belief.

It started out as a poem. It turned into speech. A divided speech. . Listen to Curtis Mayfield . If your mind could really see .' You'd know your colour the same as me.'

Makes a change from the poetry of pelosi and aoc.

Before I'm accused of being a Trump supporter, I'm nothing of the sort. Because I dislike this does not mean I'm "bitter". This is just awful. Someone once said, '"M People's music is nightclub music for people who've never been to night club." Well this is poetry for people who don't know what poetry is. The fake hand gestures really put me off also. There are those that say history will remember this. I agree, but where I diverge, is that it will be remembered for how poor it was. The actual poem is just not good. And before I'm accused of picking on someone, don't stand up before the world and assert your vision of it, and expect nothing but platitudes. This is not poetry, it's just something in vogue.
