I'm one with the Earth
I'm one with the soil
(Roots)
"Who includes diversity and is Nature
Who is the amplitude of the earth, and the coarseness and sexuality of the earth
And the great charity of the earth and the equilibrium also
Who has not look'd forth from the windows the eyes for nothing
Or whose brain held audience with messengers for nothing
Who contains believers and disbelievers, who is the most majestic lover
Who holds duly his or her triune proportion of realism
Spiritualism
And of the æsthetic or intellectual
Who having consider'd the body finds all its organs and parts good
Who
Out of the theory of the earth and of his or her body understands
By subtle analogies all other theories
The theory of a city, a poem, and of the large politics of these States
Who believes not only in our globe with its sun and moon
But in other globes with their suns and moons
Who, constructing the house of himself or herself
Not for a day but for all time, sees races, eras, dates, generations
The past, the future, dwelling there, like space, inseparable together"
Growing, winding, breathing, seeing just how far I can grow
Stretching, pushing, reaching, seeing just how far I can grow
I'll grow as far as I, far as I can grow
My roots they will, they will surely grow
