Spahr at the start of the MP3 says she's going to read a poem from "the anthology" but on the MP# enither the name of the anthology nor the title of the poem is mentioned.

Anybody know the name of the poem? Or the anthology?

My mistake. The reading was in celebration of the release of "American Poets in the 21st Century" edited by Claudia Rankine and Lisa Sewell. Here is a URL for more info

Thanks. And a nice quality audio recording. It's very nice to have a local archive of poet readings on-line.
