I celebrate myself, and sing myself,
And what I assume you shall assume,
For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you..

I loafe and invite my soul,
My tongue, every atom of my blood, formed from this soil, this air..

I believe in you my soul, the other I am must mot abase itself to you ,
I know that the hand of god is the promise of my own…

I am the poet of the body and I am the poet of the soul,
The pleasures of heaven are with me and the pains of hell are with me,

The first I graft and increase upon myself, the latter I translate into a new tongue..

Now I will do nothing but listen,
To accrue what I hear into this song, to let sounds contribute toward it ..

Secretlife,

The dichotomy of life is nicely portrayed in your words, secretlife...
