I’ve been wanting a tattoo of some little bit of this poem, but I can’t decide what part still sounds meaningful as a stand-alone phrase: “But still, like dust, I'll rise” “But still, like air, I’ll rise” Or maybe something longer- “Just like moons and like suns, With the certainty of tides, Just like hopes springing high, Still I'll rise.” Or keep it simple: “Still I'll rise” If anyone is unfamiliar with this poem, I strongly recommend that you go read the whole thing! 💕
@@MariSpil no, thank you! I love the input! I really wasn’t sure if any of these could stand up on their own so I’m happy to get anyone’s vote or suggestion!

“I am the dream and the hope of the slave” Now that the word slave is finally falling out of favor, I do hope no one tries to revise this poem to remove it.
