Let A NEW WOMAN Rise!
by Barbara Haskins

Thursday, June 21, 2007
Rated "PG13" by the Author.

This is the first poem and title poem of the poetry primer, LET A NEW WOMAN RISE.

I am Isis! I am Inzinga! I am strong, complete


I walk Earth, clothed in my African Glory.


Warrior Woman Soul


I survived the African Holocaust. That the wonder.


Truth And majesty of my ancestors be told.


 


I am Harriet! Sojourner! Rosa! Betty! Winnie!


Black! Royal! Proud! Serious and Brave!


On a mission called Freedom. Called Justice.


Willing to fight. To die to unify that posterity be saved.


Never more enslaved by any!


 


I am African Female my spirituality, reality in tact.


The power of the Most High propels me, tells me


It’s a time to stand up! There’s no turning back.


 


We are Nubian Sisters, Warriors. No more getting off track.


We’re on our way Black!


Praying, fasting, meditating, marching in our


Royal African Glory. Warrior Women’s Souls.


 


We legislate the future, we are Holy Ghost Bold!


We will the minds of our babies back


Behold a New Woman!
