- The poem still I rise is about how Maya Angelou and how she used to be abused but now she’s rich. She went from being poor and treated badly to influencing and meeting people like Malcolm.
- I think Maya Angelou wrote this poem to talk about her hard life and about how she rises.
- I think she repeats “I rise” 3 times at the end of the poem so she can show that no matter what happens to her she will get back up and carry on.
- “I walk like I’ve got oil wells pumping in my living room.” this simile explains how some parts of her life was hard
