stop this day and night
with me and possess the good
of the earth and sun
Adapted from Song of Myself – 2, by Walt Whitman.
This passage:
You shall possess the good of the earth and sun, (there are millions of suns left,)
You shall no longer take things at second or third hand, nor look through the eyes of the dead, nor feed on the spectres in books,
You shall not look through my eyes either, nor take things from me,
You shall listen to all sides and filter them from your self.
