First time an asshole with rims like that damaged my car I would follow him until a stop then beat the shit out of his car. And him if he objected.

Another blabbering. Punjabi is very different from English and trying to write English in Punjabi way is not very sensible thing to do.
I guess this is the "new world" we live in, It pays to be shamelessly confident and use media to "make wrong the right"... Good business as she is top author in spite of having little to no talent for poetry.
I guess same is tried by many, Sexual or other perversion didn't ruin their careers.
Clinton, Cuomo etc.

Why do you only use lowercase and periods in your poetry?
When I began writing poetry, I could read and understand my mother tongue (Punjabi), but I hadn’t yet developed the skill set to write poetry in it. Punjabi is written in either Shahmukhi or Gurmukhi script. Within the Gurmukhi script, there are no uppercase or lowercase letters. The letters are treated the same. I enjoy this symplicity. It’s symmetrical and straightforward. I also feel there is a level of equality this visuality brings to the work. A visual representation of what i want to see more of within the world: equallness.
The only punctuation that exists within Gurmukhi script is a period – represented through the following symbol: | So in order to symbolize and preserve these small details of my mother language, I ascribe them within my work. No case distinction and only periods. A visual manifestation and ode to my identity as a diasporic Punjabi Sikh woman. It is less about breaking the rules of English (although that’s pretty fun) but more about tying in my own history and heritage within my work.

I don't find her deserving to be made "poet of decade" or something.... I think she is (mis)using the goodwill Sikhs created over years in west for not so worthy self promotion:
