HARRIET by Lucille Clifton.

If I be you Let me not forget To be the pistol
Pointed
To be the madwoman At the rivers edge
Warning Be free or die
And isabell If I be you Let me in my
Sojourning
Not forget To ask my brothers Ain’t I a woman too
And
Grandmother If I be you Let me not forget to
Work hard
Trust the Gods Love my children and
Wait…….
