Whitman,s Poetry.

Walt Whitman's poetry, in spite Of
the long, joggled, numbering places in
it, comes nearer to reaching out to
what the modern age is trying to be
than any other that we have. Whit
man may or may not be considered a
poet, but he has outswept the bounds
Of beauty for human life He has seen
the whole universe in every clod of it.
He has Gods definition of beauty
Naturally he does not express it as
well as God does. His symbolism is
crowded with hapless places, and Gods
symbolism never misses the point, but
as the ground plan for great modern
poet an original or working poet in a
new built, new building, working world
Walt Whitman is the first and only
figure large enough that the world has
had. He had a larger repertory of Joys
Joys with everyday things that any
man might have than any other poet.
His autobiography would take in lar
ger section Of the universe. Putnam's.
