Loafe with me on the grassโloose the stop from your throat; Not words, not music or rhyme I wantโnot custom or lecture, not even the best; Only the lull I like, the hum of your valved voice.
Walt WhitmanNOT I - NOT ANYONE else, can travel that road for you, You must travel it for yourself.
Walt WhitmanYou will hardly know who I am or what I mean, But I shall be good health to you nevertheless, And filter and fibre your blood. Failing to fetch me at first keep encouraged, Missing me one place search another, I stop somewhere waiting for you.
