We say to ourselves, Remember, fear not, be candid, promulge the body and the soul, Dwell a while and pass on, be copious, temperate, chaste, magnetic, And what you effuse may then return as the seasons return, And may be just as much as the seasons.
- Walt Whitman
Lack one lacks both, and the unseen is proved by the seen,
Till that becomes unseen and receives proof in its turn

Degli anni inutili e vuoti del resto, io intrecciato col resto,
La domanda, ahimé! così triste, ricorrente
-Cosa c’è di buono in tutto questo, o me, o vita?
Risposta:
Che tu sei qui
che la vita esiste, e l’identità,
Che il potente spettacolo continua, e tu puoi contribuirvi con un verso.
"I Sing The Body Electric
An epic recounting the history of the Electric Slide that can also be sung to the tune of The Electric Slide."

Today in Labor History May 31, 1819: Poet Walt Whitman was born. Whitman published his first and most famous collection of poems, Leaves of Grass, in 1855, using his own money. It was criticized as obscene for its sensuality. During the Civil War, he volunteered in hospitals caring for the wounded. Many believe Whitman was gay or bisexual, based on his writings, though it is disputed by some historians. Oscar Wilde met Whitman in the United States in 1882 and told the homosexual-rights activist George Cecil Ives that Whitman's sexual orientation was beyond question—"I have the kiss of Walt Whitman still on my lips." Whitman is considered by many to be Americas first and greatest poet. He inspired many who came after him, including Ezra Pound, Langston Hughes, Kerouac, Ginsberg, Ferlinghetti, Gary Snyder and June Jordan.

Happy Birthday #WaltWhitman from #AllenGinsberg! "What thoughts I have of you tonight, Walt Whitman, for I walked down the sidestreets under the trees with a headache self-conscious looking at the full moon." From #Ginsberg's "A Supermarket in California," written in #Berkeley, 1955. #litstudies

"Apart from the pulling and hauling stands what I am,
Stands amused, complacent, compassionating, idle, unitary...
Looks with its sidecurved head, curious what will come next,
Both in and out of the game, and watching and wondering at it.
Backward I see in my own days where I sweated through fog with linguists and contenders,
I have no mockings or arguments... I witness and wait."

❝There was never any more inception than there is now,
Nor any more youth or age than there is now;
And will never be any more perfection than there is now,
Nor any more heaven or hell than there is now.❞
