WORLD, take good notice, silver stars fading, <br /> Milky hue ript, weft of white detaching, <br /> Coals thirty-eight, baleful and burning, <br /> Scarlet, significant, hands off warning, <br /> Now and henceforth flaunt from these shores.<br /><br />Walt Whitman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/world-take-good-notice/
