    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? 
    Don't you take it awful hard
    'Cause I laugh like I've got gold mines
    Diggin' in my own back yard.

    You may shoot me with your words,
    You may cut me with your eyes,
    You may kill me with your hatefulness,
    But still, like air, I'll rise.

    Does my sexiness upset you? 
    Does it come as a surprise
    That I dance like I've got diamonds
    At the meeting of my thighs? 

    Out of the huts of history's shame
    I rise
    Up from a past that's rooted in pain
    I rise
    I'm a black ocean, leaping and wide,
    Welling and swelling I bear in the tide.
    Leaving behind nights of terror and fear
    I rise
    Into a daybreak that's wondrously clear
    I rise
    Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave,
    I am the dream and the hope of the slave.
    I rise
    I rise
    I rise.

                                                                                               마야 아줌마 

                                                                                  당신의 시와 메시지들을 아주 많이 좋아했거든요.

                                                                                                      
                                                                                              

                                                                               많은 사람들과 눈물을 함께 흘리고 눈물을 씻어주고 희망이 되었던
                                                                                          허비하지 않은 삶.

                                                             

                                                                                          
                                                                                                 꽃 한송이 바칩니다.
