"Thank you Taylor," she added.
Smith's name is mentioned in the lyrics of Swift's title track, "The Tortured Poets Department."
In the song, Swift sings, "And who's gonna know you, if not me? / I laughed in your face and said, / 'You're not Dylan Thomas. / I'm not Patti Smith. / This ain't the Chelsea Hotel. / We're modern idiots.'"
Thomas, a 20th century Welsh poet, is known for the poem, "Do Not Go Gentle into That Good Night."
