I won’t necessarily say good riddance, but it is evident that this woman had zero talent for writing poetry.
“I wont necessarily say good riddance, but it is evident that this woman had zero talent for writing poetry.”
Maybe so, but I just read some of it and found a few I liked. What bothers me is the way the left worships people like Maya Angelou, but I won’t speak ill of the dead. May the Lord have mercy on her.
while i was not a fan of her works, i have to say that she is the writer of my all-time favorite cookbook... the recipes are spectacular, and the stories that go along with them are transparently Maya Angelou... she comes across as sharp, wicked and tangy... i especially liked the story that went with her banana pudding recipe... i received the book as a Christmas gift several years ago... it is called, "Alleluia! The Welcome Table"
Taste and see:
“It is evident that this woman had zero talent for writing poetry”.
You are absolutely right! Any one of us here could write better! Here is an example from her “poem” titled “Momma Welfare Roll”:
Too fat to whore,
Too mad to work,
Searches her dreams for the
Lucky sign and walks bare-handed
Into a den of bureaucrats for
Her portion.
‘They don’t give me welfare.
I take it.’
SHEESH! Can’t believe anyone would call this dreck a poem!
