is I, you women, I make my way,

       I am stern, acrid, large, undissuadable, but I love you,

       I do not hurt you any more than is necessary for you,

       I pour the stuff to start sons and daughters fit for these States, I

       press with slow rude muscle,

       I brace myself effectually, I listen to no entreaties,

       I dare not withdraw till I deposit what has so long accumulated within me.

      Through you I drain the pent-up rivers of myself,

       In you I wrap a thousand onward years,

       On you I graft the grafts of the best-beloved of me and America,

       The drops I distil upon you shall grow fierce and athletic girls,

       new artists, musicians, and singers,

       The babes I beget upon you are to beget babes in their turn,

       I shall demand perfect men and women out of my love-spendings,

       I shall expect them to interpenetrate with others, as I and you

       inter-penetrate now,

       I shall count on the fruits of the gushing showers of them, as I

       count on the fruits of the gushing showers I give now,

       I shall look for loving crops from the birth, life, death,

       immortality, I plant so lovingly now.

       Table of Contents

      Spontaneous me, Nature,

       The loving day, the mounting sun, the friend I am happy with,

       The arm of my friend hanging idly over my shoulder,

       The hillside whiten’d with blossoms of the mountain ash,

       The same late in autumn, the hues of red, yellow, drab, purple, and

       light and dark green,

       The rich coverlet of the grass, animals and birds, the private

       untrimm’d bank, the primitive apples, the pebble-stones,

       Beautiful dripping fragments, the negligent list of one after

       another as I happen to call them to me or think of them,

       The real poems, (what we call poems being merely pictures,)

       The poems of the privacy of the night, and of men like me,

       This poem drooping shy and unseen that I always carry, and that all

       men carry,

       (Know once for all, avow’d on purpose, wherever are men like me, are

       our lusty lurking masculine poems,)

       Love-thoughts, love-juice, love-odor, love-yielding, love-climbers,

       and the climbing sap,

       Arms and hands of love, lips of love, phallic thumb of love, breasts

       of love, bellies press’d and glued together with love,

       Earth of chaste love, life that is only life after love,

       The body of my love, the body of the woman I love, the body of the

       man, the body of the earth,

       Soft forenoon airs that blow from the south-west,

       The hairy wild-bee that murmurs and hankers up and down, that gripes the

       full-grown lady-flower, curves upon her with amorous firm legs, takes

       his will of her, and holds himself tremulous and tight till he is

       satisfied;

       The wet of woods through the early hours,

       Two sleepers at night lying close together as they sleep, one with

       an arm slanting down across and below the waist of the other,

       The smell of apples, aromas from crush’d sage-plant, mint, birch-bark,

       The boy’s longings, the glow and pressure as he confides to me what

       he was dreaming,

       The dead leaf whirling its spiral whirl and falling still and

       content to the ground,

       The no-form’d stings that sights, people, objects, sting me with,

       The hubb’d sting of myself, stinging me as much as it ever can any

       one,

       The sensitive, orbic, underlapp’d brothers, that only privileged

       feelers may be intimate where they are,

       The curious roamer the hand roaming all over the body, the bashful

       withdrawing of flesh where the fingers soothingly pause and

       edge themselves,

       The limpid liquid within the young man,

       The vex’d corrosion so pensive and so painful,

       The torment, the irritable tide that will not be at rest,

       The like of the same I feel, the like of the same in others,

       The young man that flushes and flushes, and the young woman that

       flushes and flushes,

       The young man that wakes deep at night, the hot hand seeking to

       repress what would master him,

       The mystic amorous night, the strange half-welcome pangs, visions, sweats,

       The pulse pounding through palms and trembling encircling fingers,

       the young man all color’d, red, ashamed, angry;

       The souse upon me of my lover the sea, as I lie willing and naked,

       The merriment of the twin babes that crawl over the grass in the

       sun, the mother never turning her vigilant eyes from them,

       The walnut-trunk, the walnut-husks, and the ripening or ripen’d

       long-round walnuts,

       The continence of vegetables, birds, animals,

       The consequent meanness of me should I skulk or find myself indecent,

       while birds and animals never once skulk or find themselves indecent,

       The great chastity of paternity, to match the great chastity of maternity,

       The oath of procreation I have sworn, my Adamic and fresh daughters,

       The greed that eats me day and night with hungry gnaw, till I saturate

       what shall produce boys to fill my place when I am through,

       The wholesome relief, repose, content,

       And this bunch pluck’d at random from myself,

       It has done its work — I toss it carelessly to fall where it may.

       Table of Contents

      One hour to madness and joy! O furious! O confine me not!

       (What is this that frees me so in storms?

       What do my shouts amid lightnings and raging winds mean?)

       O to drink the mystic deliria deeper than any other man!

       O savage and tender achings! (I bequeath them to you my children,

       I tell them to you, for reasons, O bridegroom and bride.)

      O to be yielded to you whoever you are, and you to be yielded
