“I am not an earth nor an adjunct of an earth,
I am the mate and companion of people, all just as immortal and
fathomless as myself;
They do not know how immortal, but I know.”

The spotted hawk swoops by and accuses me .... he complains of my gab and my loitering.
I too am not a bit tamed .... I too am untranslatable, I sound my barbaric yawp over the roofs of the world.

I concentrate toward them that are nigh .... I wait on the door-slab.
Who has done his day’s work and will soonest be through with his supper? Who wishes to walk with me?
Will you speak before I am gone? Will you prove already too late?

“Listener up there! Here you .... what have you to confide to me?
Look in my face while I snuff the sidle of evening,
Talk honestly, for no one else hears you, and I stay only a
minute
longer.
Do I contradict myself?
Very well then .... I contradict myself;
I am large .... I contain multitudes.

“And I call to mankind, Be not curious about God,
For I who am curious about each am not curious about God,
No array of terms can say how much I am at peace about God
and about death.
I hear and behold God in every object, yet I understand
God not
in the least,
Nor do I understand who there can be more wonderful than myself.”

“I exist as I am, that is enough,
If no other in the world be aware I sit content,
And if each and all be aware I sit content.”

And if each and all be aware I sit content.”

“In all people I see myself, none more and not one a
barleycorn
less,
And the good or bad I say of myself I say of them.”

“Loafe with me on the grass.... loose the stop from your throat,
Not words, not music or rhyme I want.... not custom or lecture,
not even the best,
Only the lull I like, the hum of your valved voice.”

Leaves of Grass
Walt Whitman
