Your hands easy
weight, teasing the bees
hived in my hair, your smile at the
slope of my cheek. On the
occasion, you press
above me, glowing, spouting
readiness, mystery rapes
my reason
When you have withdrawn
your self and the magic, when
only the smell of your
love lingers between
my breasts, then, only
then, can I greedily consume
your presence.

Maya Angelou's work has inspired me to give into writing.I've always loved it but never felt enough to give it a chance.Not only is she a role model, she's an inspiration in itself.

I think that you are a very insperational women. you Teach
young women who experienced something in life to not only forgive the person who hurt them but to pray for them although they have hurt you pray that they have a long life to live because when it's their time to leave this world the DEVIL is waiting for them in another world. Maya I truly love you and your work I read all of your poems my favorite is Phanamal Women. I love you.
