I AM ON THE FLOOR MY BOOKS ARE #1 & #2 ON AMAZON AFTER 1 DAY! Thank you so much to everyone for supporting me and my words. As Yeats put it: "For words alone are certain good: Sing, then"
Thank you! I would be nowhere without the women whose footsteps I dance in. While reciting my poem, I wore a ring with a caged bird—a gift from @Oprah for the occasion , to symbolize Maya Angelou, a previous inaugural poet. Here’s to the women who have climbed my hills before. twitter.com/oprah/status/1…..
Thx @Lin_Manuel ! Did you catch the 2 @HamiltonMusical references in the inaugural poem? I couldn’t help myself! twitter.com/lin_manuel/sta…..
Poetry at the Super Bowl is a feat for art & our country, because it means we’re thinking imaginatively about human connection even when we feel siloed. I’ll honor 3 heroes who exemplify the best of this effort. Here’s to them, to poetry, & to a #SuperBowl like no other 💛
So humbled by everyone's support! If you'd like to read more of my words, you can pre-order my first ever poetry collection, The Hill We Climb, here! @penguinrandom amazon.com/dp/0593465067/…..
What a day. What a life. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you ✨ @ United States Capitol instagram.com/p/CKVEITzFTYG/…..
Self-love is revolutionary. We cannot fight for others when we're fighting a war inside ourselves. Compassion is a power that we first bestow on ourselves & then give away through our actions—to people, to our planet. When we recognize this, that is when love becomes our legacy.
What an honor to be on @TIME 's new cover. From the interview: "In all the forms of expression of human life, we’re seeing that artistry be informed by the Black experience. I can’t imagine anything more exciting than that." twitter.com/TIME/status/13…..
This is 99 year old Althea. Her aide Cristy sent me this video of her responding to my inaugural poem that just warmed my heart. Part of the privilege of writing poetry is getting to touch other people’s lives. Thank you so much Althea for this gift 💛🙏🏿 https://t.co/8p4koEiVaY
I also can’t reiterate how exciting it is for me that others are excited to see poetry at a football game. What a time to be alive twitter.com/theamandagorma…..
Why is it that no matter how many shout outs from @Lin_Manuel I get I still have a heart attack? That @GMA surprise was such a gift thank you! twitter.com/lin_manuel/sta…..

Proud to be in the #TIME100NEXT list! This @Lin_Manuel intro is a gift. When we met yrs ago, I shoved a poem into his hands & said "I'm too nervous to speak but this is what I'd say if I could!" He hugged me & said he'd keep it to say he knew me when. Look at us now. twitter.com/TIME/status/13…..
I was so excited to write a poem for the Super Bowl & even I’m not making plans to watch it with other people. Please stay home 🙏🏿 twitter.com/professorcrunk…..
1/2 Humbled to be the first poet to perform at the Super Bowl! I'm so excited to place poetry at the forefront of the most watched U.S. television broadcast, & to honor 3 heroes of the coronavirus pandemic. Can’t wait for the world to hear their stories! variety.com/2021/tv/news/a…..
Whenever I feel unable to write, I remember that Thomas Jefferson singled out young black poetess Phillis Wheatley with shallow disdain: "Among the blacks is misery enough, God knows, but no poetry." Then I crack my knuckles and get to work. twitter.com/ProfMSinha/sta…..
Thanks for changing it with me @Alyssa_Milano twitter.com/alyssa_milano/…..
Rest in power, Cicely Tyson. Thank you for your life, your love, your light 🙏🏿
This legend’s second to last week was about me. I can’t stop crying. Thank you, thank you, thank you Cicely. You’ve given us black girls everything. twitter.com/iamcicelytyson…..
I also wanted to be the first to say that while it might seem like this opportunity must’ve came from my inauguration fame, I’ve actually been talking with the Super Bowl for weeks now, far prior to my invite to the inauguration. Had to keep my blessing secret till now🙏🏿
Wow, a fantastic @washingtonpost piece by @nnekamcguire . We live in a contradictory society that can celebrate a black girl poet & also pepper spray a 9 yr old. Yes see me, but also see all other black girls who've been made invisible. I can not, will not, rise alone. twitter.com/nnekamcguire/s…..
Thank you thank YOU the amazing @BerniceKing , the honor is all mine twitter.com/BerniceKing/st…..
