Can't hardly contain myself waiting for a mal-comb x stamp using quotes from Abe Lincoln attributed to mr. x. Really? Why would anyone buy stamps depicting an overrated hack anyway?

I think that one of the heartfelt verses written about her death would be more appropriate:

Gone from us Maya, we all haz a sad
You were so old with poems so bad
You wrote what you felt which sadly was poo
We miss you already oh my Angelou.

Apparently?

Either it was written by her or it wasn’t—There’s no middle ground here.

This is the same government that’s in control of your health care now.

Ugh...what a vulgar uncivilized woman, and her poetry is crap too.

Is there any institution, discipline, practice, art, school, city, state etc know to civilized man these perfect voters can’t make foul?

The quotation that accompanies Angelou’s picture on the stamp was apparently not originally written by her.

Perhaps the sponsors of the stamp could not find anything suitable that was actually written by Angelou. Her "poetry" is unimpressive and short of par with other contemporary poets, in my opinion.

Stamps with screw-ups tend to be valuable. This one, for example, is worth a cool three million buckadingdongs:
