1. Damn straight. Sit down and pay attention, Warren. And that poet, too, for that matter.

[Ichingcarpenter]

7. AMEN

[nickgutierrez]

9. That was a brilliant pick.

Shame we didn't hear more about Lowery in the lead-up to the inauguration, but they could not have chosen a more fitting figure.

[nolabear]

14. A Poet's Poet!

He's what poetry is made of. I liked ELizabeth Alexander, but this man has a poet's heart and not an ounce of fear. From an unbeliever, Halelujah and Amen!

15. He made me laugh and cry

[Greyhound]

16. You said it. I'm vehemently anti-religious and that prayer showed them all how it is done.

I think it was better than even President Obama's speech.

[Cabcere]

17. Word.

That was awesome. :thumbsup: :)

[Tsiyu]

18. I'm sorry I missed it - sounds like he said what needed to be heard

Would have been worth watching for Lowery alone

Perhaps someone will have the text up soon.
