NaPoWriMo Day 7. Here’s another poem prompted by the NoPoWriMo site but inspired by a poet I had never heard of before, the late Gwendolyn Brooks. Here’s Gwendolyn’s poem, it’s called We Real Cool
We real cool. We
Left school. We
Lurk late. We
Strike straight. We
Sing sin. We
Thin gin. We
Jazz June. We
Die soon.
Here’s my poem, it’s called We Are She.
We Are She
We wage war. We
Want more. We
Break glass. We
Hold fast. We
Stand proud. We
Shout loud. We
Stay tight. We
Show might. We
Are strong. We
Wait long. We
Are She and
She is We.
