  • When I read it in my head it sounded really good. When I read it out loud it sounded beautiful. The words were way deeper than the way he says it. He just doesn't seem to be the person who wrote it. Although he is a great poet, I wish he could say his own poem with a little more depth... the way the readers had imagined it.

  • I don't think he's a great reader. Great poet, but he just doesnt have a voice that moves me.

  • For some reason I liked the poem a lot better when it was just words on a page and not read out loud. When I read it in my mind it was my own.

  • wow i was there too wierd front row with my friends
