[CHEERS, APPLAUSE]
Thank you, Margaree.
[CHUCKLES] It's always so disappointing to me
that I'm the one that has to get up
after hearing words like that.
Ooh!
Actually, I don't know about vision.
I know the difference between a prophet and a paranoid
is what happens next, right?
[LAUGHTER]
I have to have a script.
The reason being that there's a time limit here,
and my mind is a dog without a master.
So I need to have a script.
Thank you again, Margaree, for that incredibly generous
introduction.
It's a great pleasure to be back here in the--
well, it's kind of like reading in a meat locker,
but I do love the Poetry Center.
[LAUGHTER]
And thanks, Tyler and Paola, everyone
at the Center for your hospitality,
for our patrons, for underwriting this occasion,
for anyone who supports poetry, thank you.
