"...all the lights that light the way..."


The Wonder Woman
(A New Dream--for Stevie Wonder)

dreams have a way
of tossing and turning themselves
around and the times
make requirements that we dream
real dreams for example
i wanted to be
a sweet inspiration in my dreams
of my people but the times
require that i give
myself willingly and become
a wonder woman

Nikki Giovanni, In My House, 1972
