A Prophecy

A Prophecy John Grisham was rejected by 28 publishers Before he sold “A Time to Kill” But because he didn’t say “What the hell” His books have sold over 275 mil. Maya Angelou was once a whore But she wanted to write and sing When haters were speaking she wasn’t listening And in 1993 she sang before a king. Paul Laurence Dunbar was the son of a slave Wrote his brilliant masterpieces at the elevator door Determined not to listen to the white man because he wanted more Now he is an example of greatness for the writing poor. Tyshawn Nicole Knight was once a mental case She wrote poetry on the floors in the psych ward But, she never gave up, she struggled and worked hard Now she is a publisher and her writers have gone far.
