SOURCE 1 Still I Rise SOURCE 1 You may shoot me with your words, You may cut me with your eyes, Still I Rise You may kill me with your hatefulness, But still, like air, I’ll rise. Maya Angelou, 1928 – 2014 Does my sexiness upset you? You may write me down in history Does it come as a surprise With your bitter, twisted lies, That I dance like I’ve got diamonds You may trod me in the very dirt At the meeting of my thighs? But still, like dust, I’ll rise. Out of the huts of history’s shame Does my sassiness upset you? I rise Why are you beset with gloom? Up from a past that’s rooted in pain ‘Cause I walk like I’ve got oil wells I rise Pumping in my living room. I’m a black ocean, leaping and wide, Welling and swelling I bear in the tide. Just like moons and like suns, With the certainty of tides, Leaving behind nights of terror and fear Just like hopes springing high, I rise Still I’ll rise. Into a daybreak that’s wondrously clear I rise Did you want to see me broken? Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave, Bowed head and lowered eyes? I am the dream and the hope of the slave. Shoulders falling down like teardrops, I rise Weakened by my soulful cries? I rise I rise. Does my haughtiness offend you? --------------------------------------------------------------- Don’t you take it awful hard (CNN) -- Here is a look at the life of Grammy- ‘Cause I laugh like I’ve got gold mines winning author and poet Maya Angelou.

The ceremony took place before a capacity crowd at Washington, DC’s Warner Theatre. Angelou fans are encouraged to share the news on social media using the hashtag #MayaForever. “Maya Angelou was an author who broke down the barriers of literary form,” said Postmaster General Megan Brennan. “Throughout her many written works, she explored themes of identity, race and displacement — and did so in a distinct style that stretched over time and place. Her stories embodied the pain of her personal struggle — but more than anything else, they epitomized the triumph of courage and the human spirit. She committed her life to ideas that elevated our sense of what it means to be human, and to advance understanding, compassion, and reconciliation.” “She'd get a big kick out of this moment,” said Winfrey. “Being honored and commemorated by the Postal Service with her own stamp, for the big, bold bodacious, life she dared to live, in a way that dazzled and gave meaning to those of us who knew her and many who didn’t.” “Phenomenal Maya,” said Young.
