Explore "Calling Dreams" by Georgia Douglas Johnson on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
The right to make my dreams come true / I ask, nay, I demand of life, / Nor shall fate's deadly contraband / Impede my steps, nor countermand.
Too long my heart against the ground / Has beat the dusty years around, / And now, at length, I rise, I wake!
And stride into the morning-break!
