leaves of grass





I´m reading Speciman Days by Michael Cunningham and I´m falling in love with poems by Walt Whitman.


I celebrate myself, and sing myself,
And what I assume you shall assume,

For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you.
I loafe and invite my soul,

I lean and loafe at my ease observing a spear of summer grass.


"And your very flesh shall be a great poem."
Walt Whitman
