*points up* T'is in the comments (and in my most recent entry). I wish the translation given in the subtitles was less awkward, but you do get the gist of what she's saying, which, ow. She did this on TV in front of millions of viewers. Millions. It's not the original video from the show--I imagine they're not allowed to repost that, but it's her doing a full reading.

I'm kind of an enormous poetry fan (surprise surprise) and it drives me crazy when writers don't realize that the ability to not relate their work to the world is a luxury. I'm not saying they should write differently, but I'm saying I want them to see how lucky they are.
