Song of Myself

about

Words by Walt Whitman
Reading by Alexander Thomas Greene

lyrics

I think I could turn and live with animals
they're so placid and self-contained
I stand and look at them long and long

They do not sweat and whine about their condition
They do not lie awake in the dark and weep for their sins
They do not make me sick discussing their duty to God

Not one is dissatisfied
Not one kneels to another
nor to his kind that lived thousands of years ago
Not one is demented with the mania of owning things

Not one is respectable or unhappy over the earth
