These Are Words That Speak To Me

........................."To Court destruction with taunts-with invitations!
                           To ascend-to leap to the heavens of the love indicated to me!
                           To rise thither with my inebriate Soul!
                           To be lost, if it must be so!
                           To feed the remainder of life with one hour of fulness and freedom!
                           With one brief hour of madness and joy."

excerpted from "Leaves of Grass" by Walt Whitman
