EARTH! my likeness! <br /> Though you look so impassive, ample and spheric there, <br /> I now suspect that is not all; <br /> I now suspect there is something fierce in you, eligible to burst <br /> forth; <br /> For an athlete is enamour'd of me--and I of him; <br /> But toward him there is something fierce and terrible in me, eligible <br /> to burst forth, <br /> I dare not tell it in words--not even in these songs.<br /><br />Walt Whitman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/earth-my-likeness/
