The American singer-songwriter Patti Smith and the Welsh poet Dylan Thomas have a special place on Taylor Swift's new album. They're not the only artists she name drops — Charlie Puth also gets a shoutout in the same song, 'The Tortured Poets Department.' But they play a role in Swift illustrating her intense connection and providing insight into how she sees herself as an artist.
And if it influences some of her avid fans to open up their thoughts, what does it matter? Are we going to start measuring who’s more authentic than who?' Thomas was a Welsh poet who lived from 1914 to 1953 at the age of 39. One of his best-known works is the poem 'Do not go gentle into that good night,' an extended metaphor about standing up to death and holding on to life. He was known for his charm and drinking habit.
