Filmmaker: Kim Addonizio

What Do Women Want? by Kim Addonizio

Poet: | Nationality: | Filmmaker:

Some videos are so bad they’re good; this is one of them. To say that it’s amateurishly done would be a vast understatement, and yet it still manages to be charming and eminently watchable, in part because she messes up toward the end. There’s a lesson in there somewhere. Of course, it helps that Addonizio recites the poem really well, and that she has a cute cat.

The text and audio of the poem are available at Poets.org. Be sure to visit Addonizio’s new website, too.
