She passed away today, so R.I.P. I guess she was a famous poet. Did you read her or will you just claim that you did to impress others? I've heard of her, but really never read any of her stuff. :MARIS61:
She had a terrific way with words. Many of her poems weren't very good if someone else read them, but were borderline brilliant if you heard her read them aloud.
Poet, actress, dancer, writer, activist. I heard her give a speech once. Also read her books. Seriously don't know who she was? Sad state of education.
Albert Einstein could read your posts out loud using Stephen Hawkings' voice modulator and still, in no way, shape, or form, would they be considered genius.
Im pretty sure she was required reading in high school. I knew who she was and I've read some of her stuff but I was not an expert by any means. I knew her vaguely. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk
ah, the anti hipster hipster. Hipsters post Maya Angelo quotes on their FB, and the "anti-hipster hipster" acts like he's never heard of her. The only thing missing from his post was a comment about rich white kids only doing it because she's black.
