This month enjoy Margaret Brown-Bailey's new poem "Gwey From Me!" as she describes how people sometime ignore you until you become "somebody".
You know me now,
Just de odder day you act like yu was too busy to pay mi no mind,
Now you act like me is yu only sunshine,
Mi have tree words for yu, "Gwey from me!"
Now you pon bending knees,
Willing to wade thru de fleas,
Mi case an get out mi way,
Me have a very full day,
Just gwey from me,
Because me is the same somebody that you pretended not to see.
