poem no. 28

For every atom I loaf “Leaves of Grass”

I celebrated love, I love myself, I love myself…!  

Promise, friendly… All thee right,

my soul our land… shining bright… 

Base of the bridge bones, before the dark, before… bullet dislodges… 

somewhere… and somewhere!

Ages, 

Somewhere… and somewhere!

the sun, 

Somewhere… and somewhere! 

the sky on, dunes of night…

You know about here: 

The salt, the storm is coming, ashes of green august, 

from the roads, rain and hope, walk inside the house, if hope swallow… 

All the letters, 

Somewhere… and somewhere! 

Fault and passion, 

drink on and drink on! –your own brew… 

Rest! Oh … leaves give you, rest!

I shall come in many ways or it has no joy nor grace? 

Footing, 

Roads and streets, 

Homes for all man, 

Somewhere on Valley View…
