Joy Harjo thinks writing can heal regret

We just, you know, improv. We're friends. Yeah. But this is different. Yeah. I mean, she said, oh, why don't you sit and do a song, you know, do a piece with, you know, with a guitar player who, you know, and the drummer. And so I couldn't say no. I mean, I thought about it. Of course not. No, I thought about it. I mean, I thought about saying no. Well, what would I feel like if I said no?

But I'm sitting down there in one of the seats with my horn on my lap waiting to be called up, and I'm thinking, what if my horn messes up? So then you have to have – It's just the Bluto.

I know. It's just that. I know. I love that club. I often go there. If I go to New York, that's where – maybe that's where I should go tonight.

Yeah. I sat there with my whore. And I got up there. But then the thing I've learned, because I used to have a horrible stage fright. It was bad enough when I was just doing poetry, and then I picked up horn when I was almost 40 and learned to play mostly on stage.
