Yes. More power to her.
That doesn't mean I have to like her stuff (I never will). It is poetry for angst-ridden late teen/early adulthood crowd.
IMO she's the Danielle Steel of poetry. Inspirational poster fodder.
However, despite the fact that they both filled auditoriums (so did Frost) and that Millay had some really bad poems (don't we all?) I doubt if rupi could even come close to writing a sonnet as masterful and well-crafted as (for example) Millay's "Time does not bring relief, you all have lied." Does she even know what a sonnet is?
I don't agree with the comparison of the two.
I wish her a large, appreciative audience and lots and lots and lots of money.
