In praise and holding in mind the memory of Nikki Giovanni
Extract Nikki Giovanni (US poet)
(and if ever I touched a life that life knows that I know that touching was and still is and will always be the true revolution)
For Nikki Giovanni
I reached out and found what was already there
Prepared patiently for me
Neither too far or too near but just right
For when I was ready
It has many names
Care, Love, You.
About, With, For
I knew I was safe
For evermore
Noone and nothing can take this from me
What is stronger than We?
Us.
