00:01I usually get so upset when Megha edits my poems.
00:04She's a terrible editor.
00:06Well, you know, I feel like if you could do this all on your own,
00:09I wouldn't be here.
00:14Andrea really thinks of poetry as,
00:17what can I create to give to people?
00:19I think that's why it's been more long-lasting.
00:24I grew up in a tiny town in the woods of northern Maine.
00:30I didn't know that somebody could grow up and make their living from art.
00:36I wasn't by any means a natural.
00:39Was not one of those wow hounds born jaw-trot.
00:42I was tough in the husk untouched by rain.
00:48At first, I thought it was a stomach bug.
00:51But when it started feeling like a stomach anaconda,
00:53my doctor convinced me to get a CAT scan.
00:57This is the beginning of a nightmare, I thought.
01:02But stay with me all.
01:05Because my story is one about happiness.
01:08Being easier to find.
01:10Once we realize we do not have forever to find it.
01:13I wrote a new kind of bucket list.
01:19To sit with the mourning dove who cries for her lost love.
01:24To perform one last show.
01:28Why don't we just root for me being alive,
01:30and if I'm not, I will not feel bad about not being there.
01:35We're almost there, Ange! We're almost there! You got it!
01:41To touch Meg's face.
01:45And a hundred times again.
01:49To remember...
01:52everything.
01:53All of these lands across my...
01:57Andrea's having a serious medical emergency.
01:59I'm gonna bring it up to the nurse when she comes back,
02:02because I think this might be a little bit more important.
02:05I was made for you.
02:23And there was so much of my work.
02:24Toave me now.
02:26I have no knowledge to the nurse.
02:27And I've never met before her.
02:29Who has lovely beautiful neuropoc ś.
02:33For me.
02:35This is a hospital.
02:37This has been detained in the woods.
02:38And to enhance my life.
02:41Hold down for me.
02:45It's nearly fiancée.
02:47Even if you want,
02:49if you're not alone.
