Getting revved up to really dig into Leaves of Grass, per the 22 Things list, (although I have to say lately I'm much more into reading books as I come by them rather than working off of a book-list of self-made required reading. Thoughts?) and came across this gem. Oh Whitman, I think we're going to be friends.
Press close, bare-bosomed Night!
Press close, magnetic, nourishing Night!
Night of south winds! Night of large, few stars!
Still, nodding Night! Mad, naked, Summer Night!
Yes. I say yes.
