| We two boys together clinging,
One the other never leaving,
Up and down the roads going,
North and South excursions making,
Power enjoying, elbows stretching,
fingers clutching,
Arm'd and fearless, eating, drinking,
sleeping, loving,

June 2000 |
No law less than ourselves owning,
sailing, soldiering, thieving
threatening,
Misers, menials, priests alarming, air breathing,
water drinking, on the turf or the
sea beach dancing,
Cities wrenching, ease scorning, statutes
mocking, feebleness chasing,
Fulfilling our foray.
-Walt Whitman
