THEY shall arise in the States, <br /> They shall report Nature, laws, physiology, and happiness; <br /> They shall illustrate Democracy and the kosmos; <br /> They shall be alimentive, amative, perceptive; <br /> They shall be complete women and men--their pose brawny and supple, <br /> their drink water, their blood clean and clear; <br /> They shall enjoy materialism and the sight of products--they shall <br /> enjoy the sight of the beef, lumber, bread-stuffs, of Chicago, <br /> the great city; <br /> They shall train themselves to go in public to become orators and <br /> oratresses; <br /> Strong and sweet shall their tongues be--poems and materials of poems <br /> shall come from their lives--they shall be makers and finders; <br /> Of them, and of their works, shall emerge divine conveyers, to convey <br /> gospels; <br /> Characters, events, retrospections, shall be convey'd in gospels <br /> --Trees, animals, waters, shall be convey'd, 10 <br /> Death, the future, the invisible faith, shall all be convey'd.<br /><br />Walt Whitman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mediums/
