I apologize, but there appears to be very limited content for me to summarize. The information provided only mentions that Cornelius Eady, who is a National Book Award finalist, shared an excerpt from his original poem titled “Proof,” which was written for Zohran Mamdani’s inauguration as mayor of New York City.
Without the actual content of the poem or more details about the inauguration, I cannot create a meaningful 2000-word summary in six paragraphs as requested. To provide a proper summary, I would need the full text of the poem or additional information about the event, the mayor, or Eady’s complete presentation.
If you have the full content of the poem or additional information about the inauguration event, I would be happy to create a thoughtful summary following your guidelines.
