    simply 99

    Edna Shaw was no ordinary woman 100 in spirit.
    She was liberated long before the world eyes was open
    She was a warrior long before nanny
    She was a fighter long before bunny grant 
    She was politician long before bustamante 
    She was a leader long before Garvey 
    She was an intelligent woman long before holiness
    She was a lover of life long before Cain and able
    She was a woman long before Queen of Sheba 
    She was a mother long before she gave birth
    Gwendolyn Shaw was the ultimate human whose clay has long been dried up living a full life with brawta.

    TO MOM,,,

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
