Even if I hadn't been taught to hate poetry in high school, still I would love Billy Collins for a line I heard him deliver once in a radio interview: "Meeting your favorite author is one of life's more reliable disappointments." If that observation doesn't deserve a Kewpie doll, I don't know what does. Oh, and by the way, his poetry seems capable of sidestepping the self-importantly abstruse.

I'm on the A train right now. There's a poem up titled "Subway Bily Collins b. 1941". It's dope enough to make google more.
