Hi, my name is Lucas Mann.

I'm a writer and an educator and I'll be reading Matthew Olzmann's poem "Conversion" from his book, Constellation Route. I choose this poem because it is big and ambitious and is trying to say something about the whole world, uh, and every time I read it, it just makes me feel everything all at once, and that's a nice thing to feel.
