Swiftly Spoken

Analysing Why She Disappeared


Listen Later

This week we discuss Taylor's poetry, which seems to have gone largely unexplored over the last couple of years. In particular we take a deep dive into 'Why She Disappeared', one of the three prominent poems Taylor published during the reputation era. This poem in specific was first included in the reputation deluxe magazines, and later was thrown into the spotlight by being featured as an interlude during the reputation Stadium Tour. While analysing verse by verse we chat about the songs it may be related to, the parallels it holds with Taylor's life during that period and all of the information she was able to convey about her feelings towards the end of the 1989 era through it. Finally, we also break down the tour visuals that were shown while the poem was read, rediscovering some forgotten Easter Eggs!
