What Will Your Verse Be?

“Oh me! Oh life! of the questions of these recurring,

Of the endless trains of the faithless, of cities fill’d with the foolish…

What good amid these, O me, O life?

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 (1892)

PS – In loving memory of Robin Williams. A sensitive, solitary, joyful soul. Gone today, but not forgotten.
