Walt Whitman

Book XXXII. From Noon to Starry Night: Mediums

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