We Weren't Invited - Brutalist Poetry #2 Author: Fletch Fletcher Brutalism is often called ugly and bleak, but it has a purity of line and space, a rough surface texture, and an underlying sense of weight and mass. Brutalist Poetry conforms to some, or all, of these points: * Words set in concrete. * Rejection of classical styles. * Built on tension. * Minimalist. Pared down to the bone. * Divisive. * Egalitarian. * Resistance to metaphor. * Radical imagery. * Hard consonants. * Authentic. The Brutalist lives the words. * Anti-heroic. The Brutalist is a pleb, not a prophet. * Screams from the Gig Economy. * Dry humour. Deadpan delivery. * Pan for gold. * Contradictions exist. * Printed on paper, only.
