Still I rise

Does my confidence baffle you?

Why are you confused?

Is it because I walk

Like I have money coming out shoes

 

You may curse under your breath

You may try to destroy my pride

But just as bread dough

Still I rise

My English teacher instructed me to write two more verses to the Maya Angelou poem "Still I Rise" and post it on this website.
