KOSMOS.

~Walt Whitman

Who includes diversity and is Nature,

Who is the amplitude of earth, and the coarseness and sexuality of the earth, and the great

charity of the earth, and the equilibrium also,

Who has not look’d forth from the windows the eyes for nothing, or whose brain held

audience with messengers for nothing,

Who contains believers and disbelievers, who is the most majestic lover,

Who holds duly his or her triune proportion of realism, spiritualism, and of the aesthetic

or intellectual,

Who having consider’d the body finds all its organs and parts good,

Who, out of the theory of the earth and of his or her body understands by subtle

analogies all other theories,

The theory of a city, a poem, and of the large politics of these States;

Who believes not only in our globe with its sun and moon, but in other globes with their

            suns and moons,

Who, constructing the house of himself or herself, not for a day but for all time, sees

            races, eras, dates, generations,

The past, the future, dwelling there, like space, inseparable together.
