"This is why I'm here," she declares. "This is why I came to see you. Mr. Whitman, I am a poet."
He rattles off words to her like a beatnik performing on a stage at a 1950s West Village nightclub. He theorizes that Emily has "the urge" as a writer "to join in on an infinite and great chorus"—whatever that means.As Walt continues his rounds, Emily redirects the conversation by stating, "Yes! Yes, so I am a poet, just like you, and someone told me that if I want to write poetry that I need to be like you. And I need to go out into the world and confront its pain.
