STILL HERE–THE POEM

I just Googled the poem mentioned in my previous post, and feel it too valuable not to be posted in its entirety.

Still Here

Langston Hughes

I been scarred and battered.

My hopes the wind done scattered.

     Snow has friz me,

     Sun has baked me,

Looks like between ‘em they done

     Tried to make me

Stop laughin’, stop lovin’, stop livin’–

     But I don’t care!

     I’m still here!
