About Me

O me! O Life! of the questions of these recurring, Of the endless trains of the faithless, of cities fill'd with the foolish, Of myself ever reproaching myself, (for who more foolish than I, and who more faithless?) Of eyes that vainly crave the light, of the objects mean, of the struggle ever renew'd, Of the poor results of all, of the plodding and sordid crowds I see around me, Of the empty and useless years of the rest, with the rest intertwined, The question, O me! so sad recurring - What good amid these, O me, O life?The Answer:That you are here - that life exists and identity, That the powerful play goes on, and you may contribute a verse.Walt Whitman, Leaves of Grass
