"One's-Self I Sing" by Walt Whitman, read by Teyuna Trynea Darris
One\u2019s-Self I sing, a simple separate person, \nYet utter the word Democratic, the word En-Masse. \n\nOf physiology from top to toe I sing, \nNot physiognomy alone nor brain alone is worthy for the Muse, I say the Form complete is worthier far, \nThe Female equally with the Male I sing. \n\nOf Life immense in passion, pulse, and power, \nCheerful, for freest action form\u2019d under the laws divine, \nThe Modern Man I sing.\n\n--------------------------------------\nListen to GoodPoetry at www.GoodPoetry.org and on Stitcher, Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts and iTunes.
