This America is You and Me - Walt Whitman - This is the Story
"Let me introduce myself... Walt Whitman's the name, a reporter by trade, a loafer by inclination, and a poet by accident...
"In my day during the middle 1800's America was growing so fast it bust out of its britches every six months...and the only reason men wore their hair so long is that nobody had time for a shave and a haircut.. It was like being on an express train where people would say 'This is a nice town we're coming to... wasn't it..." But there's one trouble with people in a hurry... They usually forget something... And this time people forgot America"
Walt Whitman was an American poet, essayist, and journalist. A humanist, he was a part of the transition between transcendentalism and realism, incorporating both views in his works. Whitman is among the most influential poets in the American canon, often called the father of free verse. His work was controversial in its time, particularly his poetry collection Leaves of Grass
