Elizabeth Alexander – Webbish6 https://webbish6.com Jeannine Hall Gailey's Poetry Blog Thu, 22 Jan 2009 17:29:00 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 44757611 https://webbish6.com/1949/ https://webbish6.com/1949/#comments Thu, 22 Jan 2009 17:29:00 +0000 http://webbish6.com/1949/ A necessary addendum to yesterday’s post, in which I may have been a bit cranky (because, I don’t know, I have a broken foot and a sprained hand and live in a multiple-story walkup, perhaps…? And my husband’s company is announcing layoffs and oh, yeah, no pay raises this year at all…)

Because I was disappointed in Jon Stewart’s response to our inaugural poem, I knew Colbert would come through for poets, and now I have even more of a crush on him than ever. And Elizabeth does pretty well too:
