    The depth of this poem is astounding
    The meaning is so profound
    Your words strung together like that
    Evoke emotions poignant yet proud in those who find in it resonance
    In every corner of the universe knowing where we've been
    Yet even as we have come this far in time
    Time has left some behind in mentality
    Thank you Ms Angelou for a poem that makes me proud too.

    Maya has absolute trash poems, put her poetry in the trash. Talks about heaps of useless stuff, I really don't care.

Best Poem of Maya Angelou

Still I Rise

You may write me down in history
With your bitter, twisted lies,
You may tread me in the very dirt
But still, like dust, I'll rise.

Does my sassiness upset you?
Why are you beset with gloom?
'Cause I walk like I've got oil wells
Pumping in my living room.

Just like moons and like suns,
With the certainty of tides,
Just like hopes springing high,
Still I'll rise.

Did you want to see me broken?
Bowed head and lowered eyes?
Shoulders falling down like teardrops.
Weakened by my soulful cries.

Does my haughtiness offend you? ...

Woman Work

I've got the children to tend
The clothes to mend
The floor to mop
The food to shop
Then the chicken to fry
The baby to dry
I got company to feed
The garden to weed
I've got shirts to press
