Walt Whitman

de Dreamland (a soft war)

am I so soft and alone as they say that I am, in dreamland?

dream of an ugly diary, destined for the bin

seemed like a pretty thing, a life less full of sin

To protect me from piracy,

this ocean was diamond-cut sharp with danger

where waters will sting you mercilessly,

don't let me jump either

Freedom to walk around and watch you look

So I take my mind off of something as blue

When the day crept on me weakly

And time was my worst enemy

You’d walk around the world

wherever you were,

unpredictably

-s's.

until the day

this day Summer resurrected from her grave Once again the wind sends the birds that dissolve into dust Sending thoughts northward This is the coldest tear you’ll ever shed Sparks rip your wells to puddles Stars fall on the floor When it starts happening You realize you don’t like it anymore

lying on the floor, toxic fumes inhaled, doors closed

how'd you get here, what's the matter

you know the atom bomb’s around the corner

ah, I was just checking the cars

and that everything belonged

so nice, so calm

when you go, you’re nowhere,

Listening to rock,

singing as you fall,

Erasing who you are

listen

gently while the witness

Bears of what it saw;

a soul ascend at dawn

-s’s.

I studied you in busy parks

I studied all your seasons

I loved you even in the dark,

I loved you for no reason

I give you something you can't hold

I give you my dear mind

and even if you never know, I'll love you for all time.

get out of blood network

How long do you keep pumping them out of your blood through writing,

Only for them to loiter by your veins and come right back in?
