A Tribute to Maya Angelou


 

Maya Angelou was a woman

Phenomenally

Phenomenal women? 

Maya and me

 

Maya and me?

We’re both black queens.

We don’t take crap from anybody.

 

We both are different,

but also the same.

We didn’t have the same features,

or the same name.

 

But one thing’s for certain

Maya and me?

We are both women.

Phenomenally.
