Dr. Maya Angelou

[HoneyBadger]

One of the great poets of our time and all time for that matter.

"I know why the caged bird sings and that from the ash, the Phoenix rises."

She was absolutely amazing!

Loved her work

Never heard of her! Not into poetry! Condolences to the family!

Sad that the nuts at Westboro plan to show up at her funeral. Wish they would not carry the word Baptist in their church name. Seen this lady reciting poems a few times and don't understand what they possibly have against her.

I'm not into poetry either, but how the hell have you not heard of her??

It has nothing to do with her. Its all about publicity.
